Confessions of a Chocoholic

Oh the sweet bliss, 
of a milk chocolate Kiss,
it's velvety sweetness, so fine!
I'll say it the first,
I'm afraid that I'm cursed,
with this chocolate addiction of mine.

I get feeling dandy,
from an M&M's candy,
I love plain and almond as well.
I also love the scent
of dark chocolate and mint.
Oh, what a wonderful smell!

And I'm fond, oh so very,
of the chocolate covered cherry,
as it releases it's syrupy glee,
on my toungue, which is tingling 
with the chocolate/fruit mingling.
It's as good as sex, don't you see!

I love to savor,
the sweet, creamy flavor
of chocolate and caramel combined.
There's nothing so lovely.
It makes me feel bubbly.
When I eat it, I feel quite divine!

And who can deny
the sugary high 
of cocoa and raspberry mixed?
When I'm feeling quite blue,
I eat one or two 
and then all of my problems are fixed!

The decadent taste 
of chocolate laced
with toffee and almonds, so good!
I can't help myself, 
from reaching for the shelf.
I'd eat the whole bar, yes I would!

So if you are wise
and care for thin thighs,
I'll advise you not to indulge.
But me, I don't care,
a size larger, I'll wear,
for chocolate, I'll take that slight bulge!

I used that for a gift exchange one Christmas. I filled a stocking with all kinds of scrumptious chocolates and included the poem. Thanks for your comment.
