Food and Life

*Food and life*

I am like a cup cake so sweet in inside and full of delight
I am like cotton candy always soft and gentile heart
I am a spice, but many kinds; because I am strong, I can still be me all by my self in life
Like the layers, I am different because I believe in life
Lemons are bright, but I can’t bring light to all 
I am like popcorn always ready for a fight
I am like a vegetable, some will like, but not all will adore
I am like gravy because I am strong and love to fill others lives with delight and more

The world’s generosity is like a sweet cup cake
All our unique gifts are precious like cotton candy
Solders fighting hard for all, like spices that are strong
Our children’s are layered full of hope, like a multi level cake
As we grow older, our minds, eyes, open and we see the bright of life like lemons so bright
Our love springs out in different ways, like popcorns beauty in shape
Different in our own special way, were like many kinds of vegetables, shapes, size will never 
be the same
Strong and stubborn in our minds, wanting to fight for our lives, like gravy thick in life
