She reeks of sugared candy, smells like a marshmallow
If she keeps this up, she’ll soon be looking sallow
Popping in the treats, savoring one after the other
She has to eat them quickly, not saving for her brother
Stacking them high, she would eat them all, two-fisted
This is where the tale, gets somewhat rather twisted
She couldn’t eat them, fast enough, so she’d hide them beneath
Her tongue, would hold a mountain full, and even in her teeth
But, she’d given it away, what was once her greatest disguise
Instead, it looked as if this would be, candy’s quick demise
For when she tried to smile, her teeth were stuck together
And so this ends the sweetness, of a little girl named Heather
December Writing Prompt – She reeked of sugary sweets and her teeth gave away her disguise – Day 23/31
