Candy Castle

A candy castle so tasty and sweet
made out of the most delectable treats.

Peppermint domes that swirl red and white,
glisten and shine in the the glorious light.

Licorice steeples, to the sky they ascend.
with Fruit rolls ups as flags flapping in the wind. 

The drawbridge is made of warm gingerbread,
suspended by Twizzlers of cherry red.

Toffee and brittle are the bricks that make up the structure
Painted with icing of contrasting colors.

Frosting fastens the gumdrop shingles in place
making the roof sparkle with crystallized sugar lace.

A lollipop wreath hangs on the chocolate bar door,
whip cream and cherries top the decor. 

Jolly ranchers are the windows that do reside.
A rainbow tinted world can be viewed from inside.

The palace is surrounded by a gentle chocolate stream
Where marshmallow peeps like to float on and dream.

Thanks John! I would probably beat you to the punch! I would be homeless within the hour.

Rebecca, I do not know where you live, but I want to come visit, and I am expecting a dazzling, fun-filled, poetry-writing afternoon with an imagination that is child-like and fun!
