Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Extra Virgin Olive Oil I bought her a valley of flowers Expressing her exquisite beauty I bought her a factory of chocolates Expressing my assembled desires I bought her an extra large diamond Expressing mine devotion As the dusk turned to daylight The newspapers vendors out on the corner shouted! Extra extra Read all about it! The phone rang Her sweet voice filled my heart She said in her seductive melodic whisper Extra extra read olive about it I lied!

Flowers, diamonds and chocolates can be replaced, a wounded heart sometimes never recovers. :(
