This is a bit of a forum game, but at the same time it has the capacity to result in a bit of poetry, so it goes here. I'm going to supply a line of poetry, and the following poster is to create a poem using the line I gave as their first.

"A man from the land of Sam?" I asked him, the reply; "Yes I am. Quite a wondrous place, Though hard on One's face. At least it smells better than Stan."

Reflection of my life Found in candy galore Candy canes and candied ginger, Lollipops with tootsie core, Zebra and bazooka gum, Bubblepop and more, Gobstoppers, butterscotch, Pixie sticks and licorice, Gummy bears, gummy worms, Gummy sharks and gummy fish, Rock hard Jolly Ranchers, Soft chews in a dish, Jelly Bellies of all flavors, Life Savers, peppermints, Lemonheads and pucker candy Sour to make you wince, Red hots and spicy ones Down with milk to rinse, And White Rabbit Creamy Candy Wrapped in paper waxed and rice Smooth and sweet upon the tongue Worth the dollar price.

Lord Licorice's 'stache is creepy Mr. Mint just makes me sleepy Srsly though, Licorice is a kidnapper, and Mint makes you a napper They're in it together, two birds in a feather
