Horehound Candy
Menthol and Root Beer comes to mind44 total reviews
Comment from Bill Schott
This 5-7-5 suite, Horehound Candy, has the correct framework and takes me back to my grandmother's private stock of candies that she shared with only the inner circle of sunny, reading room babysitters and babies sat.

Comment from Cindy Warren
I don't think I've ever had it. I'm not fond of either root beer or menthol, so I doubt I'd like it. It looks interesting, and I'd probably be willing to try it once. Good luck in the contest.

Cindy, thank you. Like in most things opinion life, until we experience something new, that which is unexperienced remains a mystery.

This is a great description of the infamous horehound candy which we used to call horehound cough drops. The imagery you selected is perfect.
Thanks for sharing.

This sounds like an interesting tasting candy. I have never heard of it. I think and hard candy can be used as a lozenge.
Good luck and keep writing

I think with it going from summer to winter, down my way--I am going to need this horehound candy, lol! No grammatical issues. Thanks for sharing about your minty, lightly-spiced candy. Best of luck!

The author's words were enticing, interesting, descriptive and creative.
The reader has never seen this candy and will check it out! The poem
flows and connects well. The artwork is great and compliments this
poem.
