Candy Poems

Spark


Degenerate house filled with ancestry
one short hand stretches from statues to shame 
pervading loose boundedness within the same
or toward less classical geometry

on this continuous interplay to show
how apotheosis may interchange the crow

this desire between rough designs, I try
to withstand its whirlwind and real rephaim
into flexible modules overclaim
terrain through the abundant baptistery

we have dispersed vital functions

Premium MemberMore Than Flowers On Your Birthday

This year, my darling love, you’ll receive more than flowers
Jewelry, candy, candles, gifts, kisses and chocolate bars
You will also get your AARP letter and your Medicare card
It’s vital that you take good care of yourself going forward.

Since you’re now sixty-five years old, you should feel blessed
Lucky, privileged and chosen. Please, please never get depressed

The Funhouse Mirror's Truth

The air was sweet with cotton candy, bright and pink, 
a whirlwind of laughter before I could even think.
My little brother's eyes were wide with pure delight,
My twin sister's hand was wrapped so very tight.
My mother's gentle smile, my father's hand in line,
all in a world I could no longer call mine.
We

My little Candy

Always beside me 
No matter where I am going 
She sits there she's watching 
If my tears are all gone 
Her eyes they are asking 
Today we go home? 
I wish I could tell her 
What we escape from 
Im glad she can't understand 
We run from the storm.
Her heart is so pure now 
Silent

Laughter

Laughter 

 I laughed with a Pride,
My laugh was lost with a shame .
Smile faded away like hot air.

Jokes where bad towards me .
Anger spread like a disease, disease that killed my laughter.
I used to feel the laughter in my stomach. 

Where is my smile?

My life had changed, 
Smile also changed.
Hateness became a friend.

Why it

Premium MemberCarnival Nights

And the music played.
So glad we stayed.

Lights flashing so bright,
As day turns to night.
On the roller coaster- wind in your hair,
Games to win a plush bear.

They let the Ferris wheel stop,
Right when we were at the top.
Such a great view.
Falling in love with you.

And the music played.
So glad we stayed.

The ghost train where all the

The Fair in My Heart-Ode to My Grandparents


I was just a girl of six or seven,
Stubborn, wild, yet touched by heaven.
Mornings woke with fairs in bloom,
Joy would dance in every room.

Only from Nani’s hands I’d eat,
Her love was warm, her touch was sweet.
We'd stroll through lanes with hearts so light,
The world felt safe, the sky so bright.

But if she left for work

Premium Memberhitchhiking to mars

We’ll hitchhike to mars
on a rocket not a car,
so say your au revoirs.

We’ll steer towards Polaris, the north star
right through the center of the milky-way-bar.
See, the universe is dark and chocolatey.

Stars that glitter like multi-faceted gems,
are just shiny, yellow, peanut M&Ms,
take a handful, if you’d like, they’re free.

We’ll dodge the silhouetted moon,
which is made of

Candy Apple Blood

When we finally feel emotionally attached to someone, we tell them we LOVE them 
When you finally truly LOVE someone, even the smallest of their hurtful words can pierce a wound in your heart 

But what is LOVE?
Is LOVE a feeling we only feel romantically? 
Is it a feeling we feel platonically? 
Is it a

Premium MemberGUM DROP PRINCIPLE

Gum drops are like Races of all people
Assortments of all shapes and sizes
Small components with sugar rush
Flavorful and tasteful
The end result being delightful
Feeling of content and well pleased
It’s not the color
It’s the association, acquaintance and friendship feel
Without the association there is connection
It’s the heart felt loving paying attention
Total experience of sensation
Gum Drops uplift
Relating to Race

Premium MemberThis Persian Candy

Far from the homeland, when lips part to speak,
This Persian candy works wonders, magic unique.
The spell of Rumi’s verse, of Hafez’ deep art,
In distant lands, it uplifts every heart.

A potion of love rides this caravan’s crest—
Saadi himself boasts of its charm manifest.
Open your eyes, and at this threshold stay—
The Masnavi begins to tell your tale
