"The Cookie Jar"
I am the Cookie Jar.
I'm round, but in a very good way. (Think personality wise)
I'm sturdy. I'm stable.
I'm a round Cookie Jar with a bottomless pit.
There's lots of room for cookies in my jar.
I love cookies, it doesn't matter the brand, the color, the age,
all that matters is that your good to me.
You see, I take care of my cookies. I'll love you,
I'll hold you when you need me, I'll listen to your
crumble and crunch, I won't even hold occasional
cookie swings' against you.
I don't mind sharing either. You don't have to be stuck
in my jar, have other jars, and know you're always
welcomed in mine.
While my lid is always open, because I just want
you to be a happy cookie, don't think you can abuse
the Jar.
If you hurt the Jar badly, abuse it, misuse it, ignore it,
and abandon it, I will have to shut my lid.
Now you may learn I'm the jar you want in, once you
see how happy the other cookies are with me. Yes I'll
forgive.
I'm a god-blessed Jar. It's what we do.
You get a 2nd chance, a 2nd life at being a cookie in my
Jar, but don't hurt me again. I would really hate to break,
squish and crumble you.
As for the cookies who never harm me but are afraid I
have forgotten them, never be afraid of that.
I'll never let you get stale and even if I may not spend as
much time with you as I like, I'll never forget you or stop
caring.
I'm the Cookie Jar, open for cookies who need a place to call
home.

The supreme ruler sugar
Whose sovereignty is sugary
Whose decree is syrupy
Spreads its sweetness far-flung
Nobly deigning and
Give me the the sweetness of your sugar
so clear and soft
beguiling yet wanting
teasing yet pleasing
I'll wait as you let

Lights in the sugar field
There are four in all
Three close together one a little ways off
