Candy and a Mother's Love

A Mother's love knows no bounds... (almost) And, like candy, is very sweet... She'll risk her life, for her offspring She'll fight with tooth and nail... Her brood is her essence, Or so I have heard, You daren't touch or harm them, Or say a nasty word... Candy is nice, I have no sweet-tooth, But Sees Candy of San Francisco is unique They have in some malls, Their little candy boutique My mother cherished her Sees Candy It was her only vice, And if I tried to try one, She'd give me this advice; "Touch my "Sees" I'll break your arm, Those are but for me..." I was aghast to hear this, A side I'd yet to see... So let this be a lesson, Motherly Love Has it's limits too... And Sees Candy Brings them out... Just to forewarn you.
