Eight-line Poems

Chocolates

Chocolates

Creme tangerine and Montelimar
A ginger sling with a pineapple heart
Coffee dessert…
Savoy Truffle, George Harrison

Soft hearted I may be
but never hard and nutty,
I can be chewy too,
in summer I’ll be goo.

Praline, cream, and truffle,
whatever’s in the shuffle -
don’t lose the printed card,
or end up with the hard.
