Jelly Bean World:
Jelly Bean World
We live in a jelly bean world
filled with exotic
scrumptious flavors—
pina colada, lemon lime
strawberry cheesecake
toasted marshmallow
and who could forget licorice?
Take a good look around,
the universe loves diversity
and the rest of us
should follow its lead
and be willing to risk
the new and unknown—
How sad if we trudge
through life deprived
rejecting variety
tasting only the first jelly bean
we ever put in our mouths
thinking that's all there is
or all there should be—
Go ahead...
Indulge.
