Sherbet stars,
rainbow ice,
a sugary castle
in the land of sweets—
where ice cream
houses stand along
the white,
creamy, milky streets.
The sky is
cream, the earth is candy,
and the moon a
big white sugar drop.
At the pink
cotton candy fair,
the carousel
has a big red cherry on top.
The pixie-dust
clouds come and pass,
the lemon sun
rises and sets,
the fishermen
out in the lemonade sea
catch candy
fish in their peppermint-string nets.
Ice cream ships
blast off into
the galaxy of
honey and milk.
And on the land
below, the people
don apparel
made from chocolate silk.
Yes, there is
nowhere quite as sweet
as right here
in the land of sweets,
with its
rainbow ice, its cream sky,
its sugary
castle, and its milky streets.
