Ode to Chocolate
A Poem Dedicated to My Favourite Childhood Dessert
I realise that chocolate is everyone's go-to dessert and probably does not come up top in the unique desserts department. But it has been a dessert mainstay since I was a child.
Chocolate, without all the trimmings, has a surprising slew of benefits that include heart health, enhanced brain function, improved skin health, and of course, an improved mood.
Need I say more? Enjoy these chocolate cinquains.
Chocolate
Lovely richness
The heart glows with its warmth
Enhances its beat with fervour
Scrumptious
Chocolate
Sweet, soulful
Mind sparkles with its charm
Prompts it with love and scrumptiousness
Thoughtful
Chocolate
Sinful, joyful
Mood shifts up with its strokes
Lifts it with kindness and passion
Sweetness.
