the holiday nut bowl

i may
have put the holiday nut bowl
out too soon.
the candy
bowl too, with those little stamp
like
candies, striped
red and blue,
yellow and green.
little candy canes,
and gnocchi shaped
candies,
that with one lick
turn into goo.
the shells are every where
and i have
a tooth ache.
i may have cracked a molar
on that last
bite of a walnut.
both bowls
need a refill
and there's ten more days
to go.
