A poem in the style of a sonnet, inspired by the mastoprompt word for 13th October 2025 - Lolly.

I call this piece 'Kids in a sweet shop'

A Treasure of flavours, locked behind glass
Sinister smile, from the sugar bourgeois
Naive temptation, hands warm up brass
Enticing senses, in this sweet boudoir

Tangy bright orange that makes the lips smack
Chocolate mint circle in green foil wrap
Sickly sweet lolly, rainbow powder crack
The bell says its mine, so much to unwrap

A sea of bright wrappers covers the floor
Blow raspberry bubbles, sugar rush grows
Telling dirty jokes that end in guffaws
Almost at the end of this sweet sickly prose

Kids in a sweet shop, moths to a fire
Bellies may ache, but peer pressure's desire
