The Candy Lady

Pamela Sue is in the kitchen She is making her delectable candy Now my tastes buds they all are itchin As she adds the sugar and a drop of brandy, She is mixing the chocolate on the stovetop As she prepares to create some of her tasty sweets I now can smell the fragrance from her candy shop I can hardly wait for the bonbons and the other treats, She’ll form some dough for her donuts How I hope she will fill them all with some jelly Maybe she will sprinkle them with walnuts Now there is a hunger stirring in my belly, She creates the most delicious desserts And the most wondrous types of pastry To my taste buds I am sensing the flirts Whenever I walk inside her bakery, She walks about her candy store With flour on her face and wearing an apron While she makes one more s’more To a happy and satisfied patron, Lo and behold I cave into the cravings To her sweets I am so weak without a doubt I rush in her shop with all my weekly savings She tells me though with a sadness, “All Sold Out”.
