candy floss-

this morning I saw a crepe myrtle
full blooming a furry pink-gloss
I thought to myself in the sunshine
it looks just like candy-floss

why shouldn't I bowl up & eat it
it looks just how good things should taste
i couldn't imagine it wouldn't
& leaving it there seemed a waste

I should tell you that I didn't touch it
that I left it there in the sun
but to finish the silly story that way
simply wouldn't be fun

so I grabbed a handful of myrtle
& the bees came & joined in the fray
& that is just how I got stung in the sun
so I threw the pink myrtle away
