Lament of Butter Fingers


MAGPIE 63

I cry tears of
Frustration
Disappointment
And despair
Unable to stop
Reds blues greens
And yellows
Shooting up into the air

In uncontrollable 
Excitement
Impatience
 And dire thirst
I made a total hash
Of opening
My bag of
GummiBurst

    My goodness ... such fun! (I must admit the very first thought that came to my mind was 'starburst' candies) You knocked this out of the ballpark.
