Jump for Jellybeans Day

I never jumped for jellybeans,
I doubt I ever will.
Though I have tried to move quickly,
If any I should spill.

I’m sure the pets would love it,
To leave them lying there,
But they’ll just have to find their own,
I’m not inclined to share.

I never tried the portraits,
One sees in candy art.
Any artwork I might do,
Would likely come apart,

As passersby would sample it,
To get a taste, you see.
Before a week might run its course,
Blank canvas I would see.

So I just munch the candies down,
The only art I know,
Lies in the sampling that I do,
To even out the flow.

You shouldn’t eat your favorites,
And leave the others there,
Unless you have more than enough,
So that you might just share.

I haven't had jelly beans in a long time.
