Poem Title:
Poem
Cotton Candy the tastiest sugary treat, I love cotton candy and the way that it is made is so unique Cotton Candy is just confection sugar that is spun around in a bowl, and the sweetness gets its name because it resembles cotton in a field being grown Cotton Candy used to only be white and then they started adding food coloring to the mix, and this delectable treat received a unique twist The way that it is made is by heating and liquefying sugar and spinning it around, and once it cools you can’t wait for it to touch your mouth I love the cotton candy that you get at the carnival on a stick, this brings back so many memories to me when I was younger it all looked like a trick It looked like a magic wand that you could eat, and nothing tastes as good or as sweet You can get it in different colors ranging from blue to purple to pink, and when I go to the carnival this is the first thing that I seek Cotton Candy makes me feel nostalgic and it makes me miss you, we had it at the carnival on our first date when I was with you We were waiting at the stand and you purchased some for me, we had the one stick between us, so it was romantic and sweet You would take a bite and then you would offer one to me, I miss these days when everything between us was so carefree Every time that I step into a carnival it’s still your face that I see, and I must avoid the Cotton Candy because it makes me relive the memories I can’t even stand to walk by it without having to break down and cry, because this is where we had our first date and I’m still not ready to say goodbye You were like the cotton candy you were my own taste of sweet, but then how you turned bitter and walked away from me You spun me like this beautiful confection and turned me into what you thought that I should be, but I couldn’t play that game anymore I had to make you see That I was real, and I loved you so much more than I could ever say, but you never knew the real me and you still don’t till this day When you were done with me just like the cotton candy you threw the remainder away, and all that is left is the stick that is lodged into my heart and that is all there is left to say. This poem is from my book titled Love And Carnival Foods available on Amazon and Kindle. My pen name is Amanda Carroll Kinzer
