Candy Man

Candy reminds a lady of her times with her husband.

 

My candy dish is full of sugary sweet treats.

Each piece holds symbolic meaning for me.

 

New York Pepper Mint Pattys take me back

to a snow filled day, just you and me playing

around in the white crystal field.

 

Pastel colored skittles in rainbow colors hold

the memory of the spring rain shower we got caught in.

The big bold rainbow that appeared afterwards,

was so elegant and beautiful.

We stood in awe.

 

Cry-baby sour bubble gum and coconut haystacks

are a delightful treat.

It was even more a delight when you proposed to

me behind a bail of hay, I cried  like a baby.

 

Bit-O-Honey is just as special, because each

time I pop the sweet tid bid in my mouth I

think of you husband, my honey.

 

Dark chocolate hershey kisses are rich and delectable,

but not as potent as the kisses you share with your

tasty lips.

 

I giggle everytime I reach for a kit kat bar, my nick

name you gave to me one night in the car.

 

Fireballs are firey and red hot, heats up my mouth

like we heat up in bed with love, passion and desire.

 

When I reach for a sugary treat, and find the candy

dish empty, you stand there with a smile.

I reach for you and hold you tight, my sweet

sugar daddy with all my might.

Ahh. Such a sweet poem. I love the progression. Perhaps a few spelling / grammer mistakes e.g. Take(s) me back; Hold(s) the memory and purpose/ propose? Coconut haystacks ARE a delightful treat. These changes don't affect the poem which is delicious! Well done

A fun, playful and romantic poem. I love the candy connection to memories. Our lovers sure can be like candy, they are a tasty treat!

This is really cute. I was smiling from start to end. Everyone has memories related to things as simple as candy. It's always great to see people actually narrate these types of memories, as opposed to just feeling it inside. Especially because those end up being the most personal pieces. I love it.
