Tammy Reams Poet Lyric

Flavors of Love

Love is like a Lollipop 
        you don't know what's inside until you taste it and describe

If it's Cherry,       you won't have to worry because he's always merry
                          and very imaginary
If it's Chocolate,   your ready for wedlock
                           because you've finally meet your Camelot
If it's Cinnamon,   he's hot and ready for a short stop
                           because for you he has forgot
If it's Grape,         put on your brakes he might be great
                           but he isn't straight
If it's Strawberry,  you've won the lottery you'll have his property
                           and he won't commit adultery
If it's peppermint, you'll have a saint his charm will make you faint
                           and you'll never have complaints
If it's Caramel,      you'll have a professional who's always rational
                           and very inspirational
If it's Licorice,       you'll have a plagiarist who's always gibberish
                           and thank he's a theorist
If it's Sour,           ladies beware he's always in despair
                           and will always need repairs
                So don't be shy have a taste and give it a try
                you might be pleasantly Surprised!

Constance La France March 10, 2015 at 5:45 PM Tammy, a fun poem to read, I think I want my guy to be a "peppermint" I like the charming and no complaints part, well done, and thanks so much for my wonderful placement in your The Pain Of Night Contest, I am very honoured . . .

I will be doing another contest later this week and I hope you enter.

Rajat Kanti Chakrabarty March 10, 2015 at 10:31 AM If its vanilla Tammy? Rajat Kanti Chakrabarty March 12, 2015 at 9:11 AM Oh no plain vanilla. Love Tammy. Tammy Reams March 10, 2015 at 5:13 PM If it's Vanilla, you'll have someone who is jealous but you'll thank he's quite precious until he starts to yelling. (Sorry about that but it rhymes well.)

Andrea Dietrich March 8, 2015 at 3:56 PM hahaha, about grape. that was funny. Dang, I really like licorice flavor. you made that one a bad one! I think to even this one out and show the true ration of bad men to good, you need to add in a few more negative flavors. haha. I love candy so I enjoyed this poem!! Tammy Reams March 8, 2015 at 5:12 PM Thank you Andrea! I had a whole list of flavors but I was afraid I would run out of the ALLOWED CHARACTERS. I'm glad you enjoyed the poem. As for the licorice maybe a muzzle would work. Again Thank You!
