Analysis of Honey-Combed
Soft caramel clouds roam white chocolate sky,
Wispy scents of orange curve across rainbows
While below, Jelly Baby delight colour smiles:
Floating like whipped cream, light and aired
For tongued sensations to tingle taste buds
That dream of Milky Ways' fantastic journeys,
And boiled sweet flowers throw sugar out.
Wings of honey-combed fluttering melt
Upon the touch of dawn's sticky toffee sigh,
Wafer-thin mint expressions dance finely
As songs from candy hearts whisper love;
Words that are sucked away by imagination,
Such a beautiful dream passing jumping beans.
