Cotton Candy
Do you think cotton candy is just so simply fine?
Well, I think it’s just so simply sublime!
I think that cotton candy is the best invention,
Eating cotton candy is my only intention!
The gorgeous poofs and puffs of sweetness,
Cotton candy is brimming with completeness.
It’s better than a drink with artificial colouring,
Without cotton candy the world would be suffering!
Everyday of the big boring week,
Cotton candy is the most exquisite treat.
When it comes to that sweet, sugary bliss,
Oh, cotton candy you just can’t miss.
Cotton candy is great, it really does shine,
With its lovely sugary edges and puffs so fine,
When it comes to one single piece of cotton candy…
It’s MINE!
