Sweet Mystery

Marshmallow or caramel? raspberry or peanut butter?, sweet mystery in a box my heart all a'flutter Cupid has found me the sweetest heart, my perfect match pierced with his dart Chocolate hearts are so easy to melt, not so easy to break and no pain to be felt Just say you will only be all mine, just say you will be my valentine On February 14th be the perfect gift, be the only reason my frown will lift Diamonds do sparkle to entice the eye, but chocolate can so deeply satisfy Red roses so lovely eventually wilt, but chocolate can promise undying guilt Yes, it too disappears but I can get more, with a quick trip to a corner store!

I've learned never to fully trust anyone who doesn't like chocolate. And I would hold anyone in disregard who didn't enjoy this poem. And besides, it's such a cool word, being one of a very few that comes to us from the Aztec, chocolatl: bitter water. Indeed, it is drunk unsweetened elsewhere and us delicious.
