SWEETENED TO PERFECTION
December’s sugary air
Renders us heavenly sweet
By sprinkling powdered affection
On our earthly heads and feet.
We see the world through lollipop eyes
And kiss with cinnamon lips.
We’ve peppermint rosy cheeks
And frosted fingertips.
Through the snow we go
In butterscotch boots
Marshmallow caps
And gingerbread suits —
With gumdrop buttons on our coats
And licorice lapels,
We’re sweetened to perfection
By the spirit of Noel.
