Lin Lane Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Take Care Tonight

Sugar plums and pixie dust, genies who grant wishes
fairytales with happy endings, those are so delicious
walking with the one you love, caught in summer's rain
kisses soft and gentle, the kind that make a tummy pain

Dreams that make you sorry you must ever wake
buttercream licked from the top of a chocolate cake
sugar rushes when feeling low, addictions we all need
never enough of true love, to this we should all concede

I've never heard of a single person dying from an overload
of sweet talking, loving lips, or a box of pecan rocky road.
I'm whipping up a batch of fudge that I will gladly share
the cost to you is one hug, or as many as you can spare.

There's only one point I want to make in this silly little write
it's for you to be careful when the time winds down tonight
Be safe, be kind, keep hold of your mind. Enjoy kisses sweet,
but when that party is over let the pot of soup be your retreat.
