Dreams

DREAM

oft times I dream,
about now it seems,
such sweetness it 
gives me cavities
but I am safe for I know
there is little on this earth
so sweet wth the exception
of candy; my weakness, 
my down fall here.

pepperment patties, gum drops
apple blossoms, jujubes 
liquorice whips, french creams
and Laura Secord’s everything.

when I go to heaven it will be
a candy shop 
where every thing is free and
there is no such thing 
as tummy ages or caries
or sharing with the youngers
each will have their own
open twenty four hours a day
and the more we eat the more
God will smile.

Patties are wonderful mint cream dipped in dark chocolate.

When people say sweet dreams, you really take it to heart. Delightful but I must have gained 2 pounds reading this. Well done, Patricia.
