Jazz Sugar

Jazz Sugar

The sweet, soaring sax
spins out songs
in the night
made of jazz
sugar.

The kids down
in front
be-bop with delight
filled with life
sugar.

We lie back
on the grass
to find all that's uptight
melts to skin
sugar.

The music's a gift
sent to us from above,
A God-candy bite
laced with soul
sugar.
