A CHOCOLATE LOVER
A nice cup of hot chocolate and bars as well,
Also cookies and candies all chocolate to sell
To you, to tempt you to buy just a few more,
In fact I think we would buy the whole store.
But I have to cut back to stay well and alive,
I’m only allowed a small amount to survive,
Yet my dearest husband is diet restricted too
But you should see the chocolate he gets through.
He’s not a chocaholic for he can leave it alone,
Although if there is none around he does moan,
If I buy chocolate enough to last all the week,
After a day or two, there’s none when I seek.
So I take a square or two and a nice fancy cookie,
And if there is any left I count myself as lucky,
Mind you he does exercise, goes for walks a long way,
My heart won’t let me do that, so I drool every day.
