Write a poem about skittles (yes, the candy). I have a friend with that nickname and they want me to write a poem for them. I'm stuck, so please inspire me and get me jumpstarted!

Skittles

Happy, bouncing, little spheres.
Brightly colored in rainbow hues.
Sweet and gooey in the middle
Such tasty wondrous little jewels.

Taste the rainbow, watch them rain
From volcanos, and into buckets.
The air is full and alive
With these tiny, shiny trinkets.

The joy they spread is contagious
And smiles, they seem to widen.
So pop a skittles in your mouth
And a smile you won't be a-hidin'.
