Food and Life

*Food and life* I am like a cup cake so sweet in inside and full of delight I am like cotton candy always soft and gentile heart I am a spice, but many kinds; because I am strong, I can still be me all by my self in life Like the layers, I am different because I believe in life Lemons are bright, but I can’t bring light to all I am like popcorn always ready for a fight I am like a vegetable, some will like, but not all will adore I am like gravy because I am strong and love to fill others lives with delight and more The world’s generosity is like a sweet cup cake All our unique gifts are precious like cotton candy Solders fighting hard for all, like spices that are strong Our children’s are layered full of hope, like a multi level cake As we grow older, our minds, eyes, open and we see the bright of life like lemons so bright Our love springs out in different ways, like popcorns beauty in shape Different in our own special way, were like many kinds of vegetables, shapes, size will never be the same Strong and stubborn in our minds, wanting to fight for our lives, like gravy thick in life By: Marissa Stoops
