Chocolate

I ate a piece of chocolate;
It was dark and hit the spot,
So I savored it quite slowly
And enjoyed it quite a lot.

There are some who splurge in secret,
Sneaking sweets in utter stealth,
But I eat my chocolate proudly
‘Cause it’s helpful to my health!

Now this is just like me!! I never eat sweets or chocolates....but I will have a piece of dark chocolate any time. I let it melt in my mouth, close my eyes and 'make love to it'. As you say, dark chocolate is healthy to eat. Thanks for sharing:) // paul
