The Truth About Chocolate

Little Miss Sue
And you know who
Loved the sweet
Dark sensation.

Could not resist,
Would not desist,
That pure coco
Sugar fascination.

Tooth decay?
Oh, no way
She would say
With hesitation.

Fattening me?
No, thin as can be
Headaches?
No, consternation.

No worries, no fear
Of that she held dear,
Chocolate,
Sweet elation.

Yes, Sue and I
Will sooner die
Of the greatest delight
In all creation.

    Got to agree with MariGoes it is important to have a fair bit of sweetness in life after all it is no use having a long bitter one

    Saw the title of this poem and had to come and read it!
    I so much like chocolates, and nah, they don't make your life shorter, but sweeter.
    Very tasty poem, I enjoyed it!

    Hugs,
    Mari

    HA! Chocolate is the best food for you. All the vitamins...minerals...um...stuff?! hehe. There should be a category on the food pyramid just for chocolate. Under it would read, dark, milk, nougat. I loved this and it should be my anthem. Great write. Thanks for commenting on my poem ~Nyssa
