A Sweet Moment!

On holiday – away from home
Indulgences are not unknown;
The family, keen to explore,
Stands spellbound in a candy store.

A dream come true - with chocolate bars
And wrapped-up toffees in glass jars
Trays on shelves with bright delights
Think sugar-rush - no sleep at nights!

An Aladdin's cave for tiny tots
For Thomas – this shop fairly rocks!
Those crinkly packages entice
Will their insides be as nice?

But what to choose? What will Dad buy,
Thinks Isabella, perched up high...
With temptation too hard to ignore,
Mum captures this scene by the door...
