Tasty

Tasty little chocolate bars,
Crispy rice and gummy bears.
Eat them up, my little dears,
Eat until they’re out your ears.

Have your Snickers, Musketeers,
Nestle’s Crunch, and Hershey bars.
Halloween will soon be done,
Then I’ll pick the fattest one.

In he’ll go, my chubby feast,
Taffy apples in his cheeks.
Hear him sizzle in the morn.
Glazed with melted candy corn,

Caramel, he’s browned up nice,
Tender, juicy, full of spice.
My Thanksgiving’s greatest joy,
Is candy-fattened, roasted boy.
