dandy king kandy

how many rounds
of CANDYland can
grandma possibly play?
SWEET littles in my life!

let’s begin again
GINGERBREADs,
we’re lined up at start
in primary colors

happy for shortcuts;
hopeful to see princess
LOLLY POP up in deck
rather than feeling

glum and PLUMpy

    Candyland, a blast from the past. And you are in good company with these play mates. Fun!

    How many times? Till the littles or grandma fall asleep from exhaustion or sweetness overdose! Oh what a tender poem! These memories will be worth their price in gold … I mean candy. 🍭

    I had never heard about that game… I hope the time with the grandchildren is worth all that time with the game.
