Eat Me!

You come here today to acquire me
Sometimes I can be sweet
While other times bitter
Matters not the flavor right now
For I am just what you wish to consume
So savor for a while, suck if you will
I am a lollipop for you enjoyment
Or, bite aggressively and eagerly
As I am a candy bar of your liking
But, on this Halloween
As you take me in all my forms
I say to all you children
Just, eat me!

I'm afraid my sweet tooth gets the best of me around this time of year! No wonder the dentist has the nicest house in town! :) ~ Cute little poem! ~Carrie
