One teacher handed them out to students
I guess to suck on during testing
I don't like peppermint
But then I think of you
And the image of you happily stuffing it into your mouth is just too good to pass up
I quickly stuff the small candy into my coat pocket
7 hours later I am 2 feet away from you
I gently pass you the small red and white parcel
When you see it your eyes just seem to light up
As soon as it touches your lips I know that this will be better than I could have ever imagined
As you turn over the minty cylinder in your cheek
I know that today will be a good day
