Marshmallow Peeps

Okay... Today is number seven of my 30-day poetry challenge for this April's poetry-month celebration and I am getting this offering posted just in the knick of time! With just under 15 minutes to go, I managed to add the following Peep candy verse to keep my goal of adding at least one poem to this blog every day this month. This poem is a short one considering other things I would like to write about Peep candies but time did not permit me to embellish much today so I may add to it later. Pics to come later as well...

Marshmallow Peeps

Did you eat a Peep chick with creamy marshmallow inside?

You know that awesome candy with a pink sugary hide

The sugar glitters and it shines

Beneath dark chocolate dots for eyes

Pink sugar rough against your tongue

Till melted colors dye it for

A couple of hours that’s when

You munch on more Peep chicks again
