The Candy Cane
Blue, pink, green, red and white are only some of the colors on a candy cane. A candy cane is a type of candy that has many different colors. The question isn't what flavor I want, it's am I ready for that flavor?
Before I opened the wrapper, it felt rough. When I opened it, the candy cane felt smooth but got sticky after I touched it a lot. It looked like a fishing hook waiting to be baited. After I tasted it, the candy cane was really sticky and wet. First it was red and white, next it was white.
When I took my first lick, it was like I was eating first winter's snow! After awhile, the tip turned very pointy. At first, it was a sphere shape. As I kept sucking, it got smaller and smaller. It was delicious, though.
When I was finishing my candy cane, it was the size of a sewing needle. It was also straight instead of curved. Instead of stripes, I just saw white. The smell left after awhile; the flavor stayed until the end.
I love candy canes. They're just so delicious! Candy canes, I think, are the best treats in the world. Next time, when you go to the store, pick up a box of candy canes. When you take your first bite, BAM!, you'll want another!
