Congratulations on your contest win. Your stack of sweets is so tempting. You mentioned a variety. I'd take the chocolate (especially if it's Godiva, but the snakes and jelly babies sound more like for kids. It must have been fun for kids when they could just dive in a choose some penny candies. The colorful array in the picture adds to your presentation. Great work. judi

I'm in heaven..... Penny candy heaven.....and it's so sweet that I can hardly stop!
I sure did identify with this little ditty- having for years watched the chocolate dipped lady spin her magic in the window of our local candy store.
Hmmm umm good.
Liked this rhyme a lot.

Thanks for your review Rebekka. I would love to taste some Finnish sweets.

Comment from Janice Canerdy

Good

This 5-7-5 stack is excellent in its vivid, appealing descriptions of several types of candy. I gave a 4 because the prompt specifically calls for a poem about ONE candy, your favorite.

This 5-7-5 Sweet Stack does justice to the required theme for the contest from the pov of the child in potential candy heaven. Lovely image'paper bag held tight.'

Thanks for your review. Writing this really brought me back to childhood.

Brings me back--not my favorites but to each his own. Sugg: use specific penny candy rather than generic chocolate-- e.g. malted milk balls, skybars, sixlets ...
