I am five again, running down the street of candies<\/p>\n
Every tree with fruity sweets<\/p>\n
The wafered houses are coated with chocolate<\/p>\n
The jelly grasses are of myriad colors<\/p>\n
An old man works ahead with a candy shovel<\/p>\n
Digging for a treasure of gummy bears<\/p>\n
Even His tooth is gone<\/p>\n
Empty with sores of decay<\/p>\n
He took my hand to place a curse<\/p>\n
Murmuring words from unknown fragments<\/p>\n
Woof! Woof!<\/p>\n
There comes Randy,<\/p>\n
My dog in shining fur<\/p>\n
Bite his legs\u00a0 in ardent valor<\/p>\n
Then the man fell in abject horror<\/p>\n
Into the hole, he had dug<\/p>\n
Closed up it did,<\/p>\n
As my dog zoomed off<\/p>\n
I looked up<\/p>\n
Alas! It is raining gummy bears<\/p>\n
Hurray!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
