peppermint Pauline persuaded perky puppies to prance their
prissy paws politely in Pennsylvania’s puppy parish. Perhaps Pauline

Here Is a Hint About Peppermint

Here Is A Hint About Peppermint

Lately what I have heard is a historical hint
About things they meant about peppermint;
Spiral weave,
Did receive;
From God His Son and this thought were sent.

Willow

Weeping Willow tree, 
wave gently over me, 
hide me from the breeze.

I wish to serve cake, peppermint tea, 
Delighted you munch so happily 
no other place, I would rather be..
then sheltered in wispy custody.

Candy cane bull put his hoofs around his sweets
He loved sugar and peppermint, he was fond of his treats
His mother suggested wheat, soybeans or another grain born
you can eat that stuff he said, I want candy corn

A Present of the Past

Peppermint leaves to chew on
chocolate kisses brew
  every thing that I own
bottled up in you

  pour me a passion 
of moonlight
  sip all the
whispering tears

  tell me about
that June night
wrap me a packet
 of years

Premium Member fish milk cheese and eggs are waiting in the wings

foods that make cavities are fudges, caramels and iced cake
chocolate ice cream with peppermint candy cavities make.
Fish, milk, cheese and healthy eggs are waiting in the wings.
they make your teeth strong and hard among other things

Premium Member Peppermint Business

Floats in peppermint daydreaming,
nothing can touch her inhaling;
Therapy's  so easy masking;
Sober, sobbing; Sober, sobbing;

Treatment's only temporary;
Try to deal without whiskey,
sugar, or that cup of coffee;
Just keep busy; Just keep busy.

Premium Member Peppermint Twist

Blackest night is slowly fading away,
teasing earth with new dawn radiance, 
golden soon for the current holiday,
neon ferris wheel follows moon dance, 
novel and charming in the new old way,
like a vivid spinning top of chance.

A Shade

Incense and peppermint
shades go round
smoke curls shapes abound
night passes and a life spent

Suspense and clover
shadow mocks
stranger knocks
the windows frosted over

Intense and cruely sober
memory hurts
heart spurts
facing the cliffs of Dover

Birth

As of a chrysalis

the beneficent breakage

exfoliation

emergence from

isolationism

into a mosaic of group dynamics

a centring of regard

a new diagnosis

a lissom beginning

departing an empty goblet

full of peppermint concern

Someone put one in my pocket 
I was hoping it was you 
It would have been so wonderful 
An answer to my query, who?
I'm not sure why necessarily 
But I'll tell you from my point of view:
I'd be honored to know that you think me so
Meaning you think that I am sweet too
