What Candy Would I Be?
Picking a piece of candy is easy, but what would represent me?
If I had to pick a candy
That describes who I am to an
Absolute T…
I’d choose Andes Mints.
“Why choose a mint Jessie?”
Well Let me tell you friends
I am sweet on the outside,
And positively sharp on the inside.
I’m not exactly sure if sharp
Is the correct word to describe
The taste of mint,
But when you have a mint for the first time,
It definitely is a sharp flavor.
The bitter-sweet chocolate describes
Who I am without any troubles.
While I consider myself kind and sweet,
I know I can be bitter and petty.
I mean can you really blame me?
The amount of times someone’s picked me up,
And me thinking that they actually want me-
But then just put me back down like nothing…
It’s astounding.
The sharpness of the mint
Is how I like to look at my wit.
And the coolness it sweeps across
The tongue,
Is how I like to look at my attitude.
Like a river going through
The andes (mint) valley,
I try to go with the flow
And withstand what life throws.
Sometimes, though, I melt away.
But to those who appreciate
My sharp sweet nature,
Who take me by their side,
And accept my stature.
They will be the reason I stand tall.
So yes my friends,
I am most certainly
An Andes mint-
Which by the way…
Is also my favorite candy.
