Candy Buttons, Favorite Treat
Dots of sweetness you cannot beat
Oh, the memories! From so long ago
The tastiest treats I used to adore
The sweetest dots of sugar on the paper dear
My little tongue urging for the taste
All the colors in sweet array
Dancing before my little eyes
The package still vivid in my mind
My little hands ready for treat
Each little candy button invited me to eat
It was so special at the time
I would eat off the entire sheet
Just enough sugar to bring such delight
To me when I was tiny in life
It has been awhile since I had them last
As the time became past
The small little treats brought so much joy
To my childhood memories I will remember
Candy buttons were the special treat
Small but a scrumptious thing

Once More Unto The Breach
He let the sword slip through his other gauntleted hand. Athlistan stood atop the crest of the rubble of Bordanium’s ruptured curtain wall. Beyond, the remnants of the Saxon’s first assault regrouped. They would come again–Athlistan knew it.
