The sweet taste of candy corns
brings me back down memory lane,
I was only about three years old
when we would travel in the rain.
We were headed to Southern Utah
where I would get a wonderful treat,
at the motel where Grandma worked
the candy counter was my seat.
I loved to visit my Grandparents,
I was so happy when we got there,
I looked forward to the treats
that Grandma liked to share.
Me and my sister were spoiled
with candy from the motel store,
my Grandparents owned the place
that me and my sister would explore.
We stayed in Southern Utah,
it was my favorite place to be,
I remember the days back then
when I was only three.
