Pretty and petite is she
She wears glasses well
She smiles so nicely luv
She sets mine emotions
In internal craving of luv
With a turmoil out of nid
To be with her n to know
All she is about all she be
All she is hiding timidly
Behind that tame smile
Of hers that's me smitten
My one darling of dreams
It is you my heart craves

Black velvet night
diamanté lustrous glow
sumptuous V neck dip
enchanting lush graced serene
Dramatic gown
Coco Chanel garnets glint
palatial swooning art
indelible presence haunt

I will love you until you can feel, hear
And fully comprehend my intentions.
It's not puppy love. It's about dedications.
I love you with an incredible passion, dear.
I'm serious and dedicated to our relationship.
I'll stop loving you until the rooster stops singing.
Is this clear? I will never quit loving you, darling.
Hence, you shall remain the captain of my ship.
The roo, the cock will never stop singing coco-rico,
Therefore, I will never stop loving you dear coucou.
Love must always be a two-way street with a rainbow
Where each angel plays a lute, a flute or a bamboo.

Coco the chocolate bunny,
was so soft, furry and funny.
Loved to fill her little tummy
with green veg ever so yummy!
A little shy with big brown eyes,
loved to read, so she would be wise.
But other bunnies were afraid,
with Coco they never played.
They were white with eyes of blue,
didn't like how loud she would chew.
Told her that she needs to change.
Thought her colour was a bit strange.
One day a new bunny came to stay;
said: 'Hey Coco let's eat and play.'
'My name is Empress, I love to hop,
lets see who can bop to the top.'
Her fur was brown with a blonde brow,
with white patches just like a cow.
The other bunnies looked on in awe,
at how high they jumped from the floor.
'Hey you guys come bop and hop.
It's so fun we don't want to stop.'
As they bopped and hopped in the game,
they realised they were all the same.
I will love you until you can hear
And fully understand my intentions.
It's not puppy love. It's about dedications.
I love you with an incredible passion, dear.
I'm serious and dedicated to our relationship.
I'll stop loving you until the rooster stops singing.
This is clear; I will never stop loving you, darling.
Hence, you are the woman's captain of my ship.
The rooster will never stop singing coco-rico,
Therefore, I will never stop loving you coucou.
Love should be a two-way street with a rainbow
Where each angel plays a lute, a flute and a bamboo.

Born poor without schooling, Coco Chanel learned to sing in a cabaret
She learned to sew and became an influential fashion designer in France
Known for popularizing sporty, chic, casual items as feminine standard
Her monogram of interlocking C’s is recognizable to this day
Coco was a prolific designer, first one named by Time as influential
Her jewelry, handbags, hats, sweaters, are all stamped with her monogram
She has left an empire for other designers to strive to work for.
Her fragrance Chanel Number 5 is known as daring and jaunty like her
smoothly delivered
sweetness from my lips
~ pucker up for chocolate kisses

I'm feeling kind of blank today.
My hollow head holds nothing inside.
Anything I'd be feeling drips out my eye sockets and onto the ground
like a raindrop sinking to the ocean floor.
A butterfly lands on my face.
Its wingbeats vibrate against my sanded skin.
A birdwing, I think.
Opalescent aqua and jet black softly flap against my head.
The butterfly could have chosen any head to land on.
Soft fur of a squirrel, light wool of a sheep, or smooth skin of an octopus.
But it chose me.
Who knew a single butterfly could provide so much validation?
Chocolate bonbons are fun to have and enjoy,
Fudge made tasty, flavors little taste buds in glee,
SEE’S Candies and Whitman’s Chocolates cheers the taster,
Belgium chocolates tasteful little morsels quickly flee.
Milk chocolate versus dark chocolate healthy alternative choice,
Wonderful concoctions from the beautiful seeds of the tree cacao,
Does not take a Very Large Array to hear yummy noises,
Pleasing chocolate truffles in this home bring a pow with a wow!
Hot fudge sundae complements Concord grapes for health,
People will limbo and footrace for winning the prize of Lady Godiva’s chocolate,
Oh, chocolates we enjoy delectable delicious delicacy
Yummy hearth of chocolate cake happily allow us with wit, to talk and walk a bit.
Coco the clown went sailing one day
to a holiday destination far far away
Suddenly, the sky went dark and the wind did blow
and the waves beneath his boat did grow and grow
Coco lost his oars as the winds blew and blew
and he paddled his way with a size 50 shoe
Through his telescope he saw an island far away in the distance
and he made it to shore with his skill and persistence
A group of locals met him as he sailed onto land
with necklace of bones and spears in hands
They carried off Coco to a waiting stock pot
with vegetables and seasoning and water boiling hot
Poor Coco the clown was simmered to perfection
they shared out the meat after careful dissection
They sat down to dine and after having a chew
one said to the other “does this clown taste funny to you?”
I know a dolphin named Coco,
she lives at Aqua World theme park;
on most days she puts on a show,
leaping high and dancing on mark.
And chattering,
and squeaking;
for kids and for adult tourists,
her trainer- she totally trusts.
Coco is good at retrieving,
something thrown and she leaps;
just like a dog with no bark,
she swims a bullet in the deeps.
Once jumping happy
with a trophy;
in her mouth- a human finger,
was given a fish for the honor.
Of course, the FBI was called,
with Coco's help they found the rest;
a bit here, there- don't be appalled,
all Coco wanted was praise professed.
She was famous,
people took notice;
Coco and other dolphins trained,
to find- and their joy never waned.

Coco Chanel gel
Fifty dollars = six ounces
Sample last how long
Rub a little on
Each morning just feel richer
Ackchu allergy
Too rich for my pocketbook anyway
When I sit in the night,
I think of the one I lost so long ago.
Then I remember,
Of the one who I love almost as much.
When I look at her and think,
She reminds me of that girl.
So beautiful and innocent,
With all the love of the world.
I treat her like my own,
But she will never replace my sister.
She tries to make me hate her,
But I can see the beauty within.
No matter how much she tries,
I will always love her like a sister.
I know it's strange,
Maybe even bizarre;
But I love her like my own,
No matter what she does.
