Licorice Twirl

Licorice anyone???

The jingle of the glass jars make her happiest sound.

She smiles sweetly at the crystal ring each time the top is tilted.

From her counter by the door, she watches as they wander up and down the aisle…

eyes wide and overwhelmed by the tempting treats

stacked on either side.

Each scene is similar…pleading, promising, and negotiation.

But the finale is always fair.

It would be too cruel to come in and leave without sampling a single sweet.

The pleadings turn to anticipation when it’s apparent their little logic has won.

And soon the squeals of joy sound when the first jar top is taken off.

The scoop sinks deep into the coveted confections and the candy sack begins to fill.
