There was the dark chocolate truffle right there

Egging him on to consume and enjoy the ephemeral experience

Mustering his willpower, he pushed the candy away

Putting him in touch with its shiny ebony brown exterior, but he got up and walked off

The fact that he licked his fingers as he left was totally not a cave

She was so hungry.  It had been way too long

Now she had lots of opportunities to do something about it

And she sampled a few of the wares offered to her, but none had hit the spot

Candy for the eye almost always left her unsatisfied

Knowing all that, she was still willing to give him a try.  She was in the mood for at least a…

Dine (an acrostic poem)

 

Dinner was coming soon, he was sure of it

It just meant waiting a bit more

Not that is stopped him from eating a candy bar

Everything would be fine as long as she didn’t find out

Candy (an acrostic poem)

Confectionery concoction tempting my sweet tooth

Alluring in its simple primal call

Needless calories prostrate in front of me

Do I give in and experience their rapture?

You will have to tune in next time to find out

Grading (an acrostic poem)

Giving points out like Halloween candy

Reaching into my bag, I pull out a number

And I drop it onto their paper

Defining their mental capture of my material

It is an inexact science for sure

Now when they get that judged paper back

Going to wonder if they think it’s a trick or a treat

Reaching for the bigger half, Ivan smiled as he took a bite.

Snack (an acrostic poem)

Silently my stomach ambushes me

Not giving me a chance to finish making my meal

All I can think of is how much I want to eat something, anything

Candy soon fills my pie hole, ruining my dinner, but still

Killing my hunger dead in its tracks

Candy (an acrostic poem)

Confectionery transfers taking place

All you need is the passphrase

Never mind the other monsters and gremlins

Do a bit of legwork and you can be rich

Yet your dentist might be the final winner
