Thoughtful Junk

I am the jolly lollypop
I tickle your tongue and make you hop
My sour and sweet and tangy flavour 
Will make you forget all the day's labour.

I am the wafery ice cream cone
With a red juicy cherry on my crown
You should eat me so quickly
If not I will melt softly.

I am the creamy butter Pastry
You find me in every pantry
I am the guest of all the happy hours
I spread smiles when gifted with flowers.

I am the cheesy hot pizza
My spices turn you into a dancing diva
Red peppers on a crunchy crust will blow your tastebuds
My different flavours become your all-time favorites.

We all make you happy just for a while
And we do a least good for your lifestyle
Eat us once or twice a month
Vote for mommy's food for a good health

Swetha, this poem verged on the edge of a personification poem. So much fun to read! And now I must run to my kitchen and see if I have ice cream and a cherry.
