Sugar and Snowflakes

There is magic in ... Sugar and snowflakes, When wonder does begin As December awakes Where this magic comes from Do we really need to know ... From first bite to last crumb O, how we enjoy it, though These simple, pleasurable things Dance and mix and melt ... Upon imaginary wings ... And with our feelings felt Comes to us like a dream These things need not grow up, Unlike the rising steam ... From a hot cocoa cup Wonderful and sweet A warmer winter makes, When candy and spice meet And an oven slowly bakes There is magic in the air In crystals can be found, Within many sugared fare Or snowflakes on the ground.
