I love the way you melt in my mouth

caramel swirls

dulce leche promises

cinnamon kisses

chocolate whispers

dripping vanilla creme


I love the way you give me rough candy

hard candy

that takes a long time to suck

and lick

and how the sticky sweetness

clings to us


You say though

you much prefer my goody bag

and would love to dip your fingers in

for a taste


Well baby, c'mon and get some sugar...
