Season of Gummy Bears

I am five again, running down the street of candies

Every tree with fruity sweets

The wafered houses are coated with chocolate

The jelly grasses are of myriad colors

An old man works ahead with a candy shovel

Digging for a treasure of gummy bears

Even His tooth is gone

Empty with sores of decay

He took my hand to place a curse

Murmuring words from unknown fragments

Woof! Woof!

There comes Randy,

My dog in shining fur

Bite his legs  in ardent valor

Then the man fell in abject horror

Into the hole, he had dug

Closed up it did,

As my dog zoomed off

I looked up

Alas! It is raining gummy bears

Hurray!
