All by myself
I'm spiced with sweetness
Crispy and ready to eat
But you don't eat me
You cut me
Into fat pieces
Frost me up with icing
And this suits me just fine
So go ahead
Decorate me with those gummy drops
The spicy ones in green and red
I like those candies best
Or licorice, or lollipops
To line my windows, doors, and roof
The frosting adds some needed snow
And then I'm ready for display
But pretty doesn't really suit me
Looking isn't quite enough
I sigh for little sneaky fingers
To pull off pieces, nibble up
After all, I'm really meant for EATING.
What am I?
