Candy Land

Follow me to a wonderful place,
Where sugar and frosting stck to your face.
There is a peppermint house and a chocolate town clock.
There are gumdrops for grass on every town block.
The children play dodge ball with a ball made of sweets,
While cars made of jolly ranchers dance in the streets.
A sour key unlocks each and every door.
When you come to Candy Land, you'll never want more.
The sun in the sky is a lemmony yellow,
And the white fluffy clouds are giant marshmallows.
Street lamps stand tall, made of yummy red licorice.
They make your belly feel warm and ticklish.
The side walks are lined with tasty sweet tarts,
A place to stroll with you favourite sweet hearts.
The people are not people, but cute gummy bears.
This magical place is where evreryone shares.
Out comes the milky way moon and candy bar stars.
It's time to park thoes jolly rancher cars.
On come the tall red licorice lights.
In Candy Land the days are as sweet as the nights!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

I am new to this site and I have no idea if I have to claim my prize or what else to do at this point in time. If anyone could please help me out any information would be wonderful. Thanks again!
