CANDY!
It's candy day
that yummy tradition,
we invade Wendy's house
and mess up her kitchen.
We dress in our aprons,
(now don't they look cute)
we're ready for action;
a chocolate pursuit.
We stir and slow boil
so carmels don't burn;
with brittle however
we haven't quite learned.
10 pounds of chocolate
you'd think was enough,
but we ran out while dipping,
had to use the cheap stuff.
Chocolates chips don't melt
the way we expect,
and some poor little turtles
have some slight birth defects.
Toffees and truffles,
popcorn and fudge,
chocolates and nut rolls,
my weight shall not budge.
I'll stick to one piece
of candy per day;
at that rate I'll have it
eaten by May.
Unless my family
finds where it's hid,
then I won't have to worry
of pounds to get rid.
C is for calories,
consumed more at this time;
but I say heck, once a year
it's not such a crime.
