Taffy, oh taffy, so chewy and sweet,
A treat that you’ll surely want to eat.
On May 23, we celebrate this delight,
So grab a piece and take a bite.

Taffy, taffy, what is it, you ask?
It’s not a lollipop, nor is it a flask.
It’s a chewy candy that’s pulled and stretched,
A sweet sensation that’s sure to impress.

The origin of Taffy Day is a mystery,
But we like to think it’s to honor this candy’s history.
From seaside boardwalks to country fairs,
Taffy has been enjoyed by all with no cares.

To celebrate, grab some taffy of your own,
In a flavor you love or one that’s unknown.
You can make it a party or enjoy it alone,
Just make sure you don’t eat too much, or you’ll moan.

To make it a social event, invite some friends,
And challenge each other to a taffy-pulling trend.
And to wash it all down, we recommend
Some milk or lemonade, a delicious blend.

Watch your health, even on Taffy Day,
Don’t eat too much or your teeth will pay!
And be careful when you pull and stretch,
Or you may end up with a sticky mess.

In conclusion, Taffy Day is a treat to savor,
So indulge in some taffy with good behavior.
And if anyone asks why you celebrate,
Just say Wild Calendar gave you permission to participate.
Happy Taffy Day to all, enjoy it with joy and glee,
And don’t forget to brush your teeth before bed, you see!
