Tinker and the Candy City (ImperfectPsychotic04) wk-3

Tinker and the Candy City

Once upon a spectacular time,

coloured in confit was a town.

Around the honeyed trite was the lime slime,

whereupon he munched on the cake-drown.

All along the bonbon street did I hear it chime,

two silver bells, bead like eyes on Tinker's crown.

Through the Gingerbread Avenue, with the cotton candy ropes to climb,

I accompanied him to the Pie Caves down the riverside with a frown.

He was insistent on making me play,

with his mates, Bunny and Slice;

Tinker only wished for us to bond and prey,

onto the plush blueberries, he quickly urged us to a splice.

But I was a shy shelly, shadowed by my worry,

that I'd lose my best friend if I befriend them.

Tinker would be left behind in the cherry wherry,

yet he assured me of his affection, by giving me his trust-gem.

It was then that I realised his worth,

as we paraded our berry jars all around the kiwi queens.

Throughout the village of sweets and starry seams,

I would always find Tinker by my side, living in our candy hearth.
