One Colossal Goof
You have never tasted chocolate
‘Til you’ve had yourself a bite
Of a truffle bought in Belgium,
Like the one I had tonight.
Purchased on my last vacation –
Seemed it was the thing to do –
I had not yet had a nibble
‘Cause I didn’t have a clue.
But a visit from my daughter
Was the motivating force
And it only took a tiny taste
To fill me with remorse.
For my mouth became electric
From a chocolate so intense
That the small amount I purchased
Didn’t make a lot of sense.
Oh, at times I must acknowledge
Making one colossal goof
And if you could taste this truffle,
You’d have all you need as proof.
