Cecilia Macfarlane Poet Rhyme

Candy Snatcher

You thought you were being so clever Bobby
Sneaking my Halloween stash while I was asleep 
But I heard you quietly rattling my candies 
Being so entranced,  you did not see me peep

After last years stealing,  I devised a  clever plan 
For sure the final time of my treats, you will be a fan
If you would have asked, I would have given you some
Now your in a pickle, and feeling really dumb 

Bro, I injected laxatives in that full size chocolate bar
That I am sure you hungeredly and enjoyably ate
Do not worry I will inform all  of your buddies
Of your absence from school or uncomfortable late

John Watt March 20, 2020 at 1:59 AM I think I just lost my appetite for candy, Cecilia. Fun write! Hugs/John Cecilia Macfarlane March 20, 2020 at 8:25 AM Hahaha. Thanks John. Hugs

Lindsay Laurie March 2, 2020 at 8:47 PM G'day Cecilia … revenge is sweet, but sometimes another retaliation occurs. Never take a sleeping pill and a laxative together before going to bed - enjoy your candy Cecilia - Lindsay Cecilia Macfarlane March 2, 2020 at 9:17 PM Hahaha...that would definitely be a recipe for disaster. Hugs

Paul Callus November 7, 2019 at 11:04 AM This lovely, cute poem took me back many years in time, Cecilia! I can still vividly recall my younger siblings making pigs of themselves after mistaking laxatives for chocolates!! Regards & Hugs // paul Cecilia Macfarlane March 2, 2020 at 9:20 PM Thanks Paul. I can picture them enjoying their so called chocolate, then the mayhem that follows. Hugs

Judy Ball November 3, 2019 at 2:48 PM This really made me laugh Cecelia. I playd that same trick on my husband one year at Christmas. He was being grumpy and spoiling the holiday for everyone so I slipped some chocolate Exlax into the chocolate box he loves so well. He was so busy he forgot about being mean. Great job and congrats. God Bless, JB Cecilia Macfarlane November 5, 2019 at 5:49 AM You are so devious and funny. But also a really smart lady for saving Xmas cheer. Thank you. Hugs
