Cos the Lady Loves Milk Tray Abb

the dog's bark was a ferocious sound
the man stood motionless ..should he run or wait
imagining the jaws that would seal his fate

the window half open was a chance to escape
stood motionless….. his brain went into overdrive
resisting the urge to run…. to survive

under his arm was his calling card
a box of milk tray for the lady,… they say
sent with a kiss, as he goes on his way

the lady sleeps on, oblivious to the scene just played
wondering, who was the secret santa this time
as she munched,  each layer, tasting more sublime

... and all because the lady loves Milk Tray, oh weren't those adverts fun lol, a perfect poem Seren, who can resist a poem about Chocolate. I think it was probably Cadbury's in its heydays now i don;t but it I don't like the taste as much since the company was taken over! lol:-( good luck in the contest
