Cotton Candy

What I sometimes see before sunset or sunrise, is one of the most beautiful things before my eyes. A reddish sky through branches of the chestnut tree, permeating the heavens is what I can see. The pink hues remind me of cotton candy. That is my childhood treat so sweet and sticky. Cherished times in earlier days I reminisce. Few moments of my past are as sweet as this. I devoured the treat at ballgames and carnivals too. The candy was spun in pink, and sometimes blue. I wondered if pink was for girls and blue for boys. Both colors and flavors brought me many joys.
