Incompatible

INCOMPATIBLE

Some say we're incompatible,
It seems that most agree.
We don't belong together,
Should be independent and free.

Why do people judge us, 
When we in each delight?
Having different tastes just adds
To a mixture that's just right.

We're joined together as a pair,
Like a hand fits in a glove,
And the pleasure we can give,
Spreads to others with our love.

You may begin to wonder why, 
We've stayed attached this long,
How did we get so popular
And proved so many wrong?

We'll let you hear our secret,
Then all of you can share,
Peanut butter and chocolate
Are a very compatible pair.


From the book 'Chocolates and Chuckles'

This is so sweet Vivien! I reminds me of my relationship with my husband of 36 years. We are such opposites I often write about it, but we make it work. I really enjoyed reading this. Peanut butter and chocolate is a tasty combination....I agree. It is among my favorites. : )
