Candy Store Sweets
by
Stacie H, Dunnville, Ontario, Canada, Age 14
Yesterday was nice and breezy
I didn't
work, I took it easy
Walked
up town to the candy store
Walked
right on in through the door.
Lots of treats
and goodies there
I couldn't
help but stop and stare.
Jelly
beans and licorice too
Cotton
candy for me and you.
Bubble gum
and gummy bears
I'll
get fat, but, who cares?
Swedish
fish and Swedish berries.
Chocolate
covered on top of cherries.
Milkshakes,
ice cream, sprinkles and more
I'll
take two, on second thought four.
Popcorn,
peppercorn, candy corn ewww
I better
leave, I gotta sneeze, a-a-choo.
Maybe I should
quit while I'm still ahead
I feel
real tired, my jaw hurts, my stomach feels like lead
But as
I keep on looking, the candy says to me;
Don't
be scared, we have no calories, come on, take three
So, as I go
to pay for the junk food that I've listed
Someone
looks sideways at me as though I am very twisted
So I
go back and ask that person what is up there bud?
They
say you are buying all of that but not the land of mini putt ?
I say why no,
you are quite right, I'll add that to my cart
Then
someone else comes over to me, here buy these they make you fart.
Then
a lightbulb comeson in-to my head
You haven't
ate your dinner yet, you must, you must be fed
Something decent
something good before you mess your diet
By eating
all those gross yuck foods your stummy will have a riot
I say,rite
you are mr booger brain
I think
I'm going razy, I'm going rite insane
So i go home
and meet my fridge
Then
eat my cheese and build a bridge
With
my keilbassa and crackers and cheese
My stummy
will be mighty pleased!
Two days
down the road from now
I go
to my barn to milk my cow
I pull
a bag of starbust candies
From
my pocket they taste jstu dandy
I bite down
on a strawberry one
Eww what
was that on my tongue?
I go
inside and look in the mirror
I scream
real loud with tons of fear
My mother's
gonna have a fit
Here
comes another filling trip
200,
and 93 dollars
That's
as much as my dog's neck collar
Jezzerbajeebers
oh help me
Take
a deep breath and count to three
Walk
inside and tell my mom
That
my filling came out and show her my palm
Where I have
taken a piece of skin
And put
it in my tooth to mend
The whole
where the filling came out
Now the
filling is out of my mouth
And in the
plam of my hand
Remains
the filling of the band
Of teethies
in my mouth to mend
For myself
i will fend
I will runaway
and be alone
And cry
and scream and mourn and moan
Of all
the regrets i have to tell
I wanna
goto heaven not to hell
So my main
point of my story is
Don't eat candy or pop that'll fizz
For if you do you will see
A filling come out or maybe three
And then your
mom will b smokin mad
And you will lie and have to find a cab
Because your mom will say to you
Ccandy
and pop, what has happened to you
Haven't
I raised you to eat prim and proper
Not sum
stupid runts and gobstoppers?
Forking
out money every which way
Jjust
so you can gain calories and say
Mom, do i look
fat today?
And I
say no sweetie, go play in the hay
Sso now
my story comes to an end
Don't
eat candy just food that i send
Grapes and
fruits and veggies too
Alfalfa sprouts and cooked green poo
Yucky yuck yucks and ewwie eww eww's
Will make a strong and beautiful you!
