All that chewy goodness

So tart and sweet and yummy

Doesn’t do me any good

It just expands my tummy

Not to mention what it does

To my sugar count, oh my

Still I shovel it in my mouth

Don’t know the reason why

Perhaps it’s the fruity flavor

They must know my weaknesses

A marketing ploy, if ever I’ve seen

Crafted by real jellied geniuses

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

Vampires should know better
Never indulge in something so sweet
Chocolate is sure to whet the appetite
The sheer enjoyment just can’t be beat!

Now that autumn has returned
And Halloween is not far behind
They’re getting themselves ready
For a night that’s quite sublime

Although, some have started already
Raiding houses in search of a nibble
They aren’t looking for necks, oh no
Over this, they try not to quibble

They gathered together to set out a plan
Each one would go his own way
Remembering not to cross one another
They would follow the moon until day

There was a young lad, new to the game
He stole from the others, how dandy
Overdosed on what he had in his sack
Now he’s in the ER, coffin’ candy

Sour drop dreams, sweetened, like candy

Made Charlotte feel, just a little bit randy

Naughty was she, but oh what a treat!

She’d pucker her lips, though, quite indiscreet

Only the corner store, could satisfy her urge

A delicious stock boy, on which she would splurge

Forget about candy, it really wasn’t her thing

She got what she wanted, from her sweet little fling

You could tell by the look on her face
It was something she’d never embrace

Mama promised, if she got it right
A sweet surprise, would be her delight

Dressed up, in white lace and pink flowers
She tried to do it, for hours and hours

Lying down in the grass, quite exhausted
This whole curtsy deal had her daunted

Angered, indeed, by her now dirty knees
She’d rather lie there, than forever be taunted
