Sweet Tooth

Taking my sweet tooth to those place

Where dark chocolate skies are bright

There sweetness lights my face

Where candy moon's all take flight

 

Riding strawberry milkshake shouting out

Where cakes and butterhorn’s happily lay 

Partaking of dozens of vanilla cake-donuts

Midst marshmallow cheese-cake’s at play

 

Diving into dreams of coconut creams

While swimming through rice pudding pie

No stopping til I eat a whip cream lollipop

While chewing on a bubblegum butterfly

 

When the caramel candy creek run's high     

And rock candies sparkle through night

There neath that mars bar's chocolate sky

I’ll keep feeding my sweet tooth’s appetite

 

 

Author's Note

With old age becoming less popular
Some old cronies try to wish on a star
But with this sorry process
Being too hard to address
They go blow their savings on a new car

I'd forgotten all about both him and that song
I'll have to get Google to play it again for me.
Here is hoping the very best for both of you

Diabetics should not read this one.
