You, Me, and Candy

Love is the essence. Your presence is flavor. I'll savor you "Now and Later." Your sweetness is one, of many candies, not just good night pillow mint "Andes."   I'm a "sucker" for you, like an "Everlasting Gobstopper," forever true. Even if there's "Mounds" on the "Rocky Road," we'll "Crunch" it out and keep our oath. You gave me a "Ring Pop" and I said, "I do." You're forever my "Sweettart" and I love you.     You know I'm shy, but a great romancer. "Red Rope" me in, like a "Jolly Rancher." Let's make it "Good and Plenty," as true love's meant to be. We'll start with "Hershey's Hugs," then we'll twist into "Kisses." Doesn't that sound delicious? I'll lick your "Necco," as you tickle my ears. My "Snickers" are so hard, I'm brought to tears. I'll "Rollo"-ver and purr like a "KitKat" while you tenderly rub my back. "Mr. Goodbar," you're way above par. You make relaxing easy,  like bendy "Laffy Taffy." You give me "Red Hots" with your fingertips. ""M"mm "&" "M"mm," are upon my lips. Take me to "Mars," in the "Milky Way," Take me anywhere, as long as you stay. Call me "Baby Ruth," or whatever you please. Call me your girl, or a playful tease. You're a little nutty, my funny "Almond Joy." When it's "Reece's," I'll play with your toy. You're not so shabby, fancy "Sugar Daddy." We'd make great "Sugar Babies." Maybe with lots of practice, we might have "Twix." We could name them "Mike & Ike," or something we both like. You're such a "Big Hunk," and I love "Whoppers." Let's make this night one of many non-stoppers. (Candy names were originally in bold instead of quotations, but it didn't transfer over correctly.)

Thanks so much, Linda! I wouldn't have put this is two contests had I known it'd place again. When I saw "NA" I thought it meant "not applicable". Maybe it ,means "not announced" ? IDK? Thank you for the honor. : )
