Candy Land

I found myself in Candy Land
Laying beneath the stars.
Then approached the Candy Man
Offering candy bars.

He told me they were magical
And they could give me awesome powers.
I took a bar and ate it all.
I was as tall as the tallest tower.

I ran around in my boat sized shoes
Smashing all the candy cars.
The Candy Man then let me choose
Between two new candy bars.

I took the one with the colorful wrapper,
And ate it in one bite.
Soon my heart began to beat faster.
My body was taking flight.

I flew up to the cotton candy clouds.
I grabbed as much as I could.
I ate and ate sinking back to the ground,
Landing on a Pirate's plank of wood.

The Pirate charged at me with a chocolate sword,
But it melted in the sun.
I threw the Pirate overboard,
And ate all his candy one by one.

I jumped off his ship and landed on my feet.
I began to run on top of the water.
I ran all the way to the Island of Treats,
Where I met a boy named Harry Potter.

He took out his wand and made a special bar,
One designed to enhance your sight.
I couldn't see anything, near or far.
It was all much too bright.

I closed my eyes and counted to ten.
What I saw would blow your mind.
There were bright, brilliant colors with spheres at the end,
That not once tired with time.

I rode a sphere back to Candy Land,
And layed, again, beneath the stars.
I was woken, then, by the Candy Man,
Offering more candy bars.
