Candy
Child’s delightful treasure
Craved for with triumph mirth
Cool… there’s an inviting
Choco-flavored nutty
Crispy and gummy sweet
Coated pop as God's gift*…
Care to taste? Yes, I’ll share.
James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
