A choccy sonnet. I paused the day to look around and then I couldn’t help but notice it was there It was so smooth and lovely I gave in and took it in my hand to my armchair. Chocolate is a sweet I cannot forfeit my willpower is nil where it’s concerned and though I’m very wobbly and unfit I know away from chocolate I’ll not turn. But you, dear boy must learn from my mistakes, for dear old chocolate sticks around the waist, Your tummy will stick out and chairs will cave, although I’m sure you’ll love its yummy taste. So I will eat these choccy bars myself, oh what I do to benefit your health! ;) Ruth

The greatest aphrodisiac ever made, this is the best love poem I ever read, I never had one, but I have to say as far as chocolate goes I like the milk coconut bars from mark and spencer. Tasty read time to raid the pantry

Yes we all love a Tim tam, did you ever get to try the one with the hint of chilli. It was my favourite. if it is Arnotts i am sure they would love to have this Danny. Whilst you are recovering hope you are not eating a pack a day other wise you may have to think about another form of advertising. Great work and thank you

The poem is as delicious as munching a crunchy, creamy cookie! Makes the mouth drool! !

They sound delicious Danny - we all love chocolate don't we, especially when life gets us down. Boosts the serotonin levels and gives us a high.
