THE SWEETEST PLACE…
If there was such place where
Just by snapping of the fingers
The reality would be
No cosmic confusion
No bittersweet delusions
But out of wishes dreams came true…
Far, far away
In a clever-ever land
There’s the rising of a Casablanca moon
Soon an effervescent dawn would yawn
In a chocolate world made for chocolate hearts
like you and like me
There’d be a currency of golden honey
Cobble streets of Toblerone
paved with wrappings of silver linings
Walls be cladded with Nougatelli cookies
against sidewalks of Turkish delights
Upon fields of green mint confetti
We’ll toast to a dream by sipping on Amarula Cream…
And where the water falls
we bathe in pools of coconut milk
Later ride upon the waves
of a Tropicana Orange river
And for your skin in case you quiver
I’ll wrap you up in a garment
of priceless cashmere silk…
To a chocolate girl in a chocolate world
We wine and dine for diner
Feeding off the smoothest squares of Lindt
Up and close set like a flint
we’d slow dance to the perfume of you
Then after play the night will say
‘Cushy comfort nighty-nite
Lay your head upon the pillows’…
If such a place existed
inside of you, inside of me
Right upon to your chocolate heart
My head will find
the sweetest place of destiny…

I wouldn’t want to snap my fingers and enter paradise- I wouldn’t appreciate it that way. Rather build utopia…
What if the parallel truly exists. What if you could have the best of both?
I always try to get the best of both if the option is available…
Oh my gosh, you took us on the sweetest chocolate journey ever. And Lindt is a favorite. Great poem and always Bradley. Now I need some chocolate.
I’m so glad to share all this sweetness with you. Now you go on and treat yourself to some niceties.
Thanks for the permission… I will do just that.
Carol you don’t need anybody’s permission to make your moments memorable. You are more than you know, you have more than you can recognise.
May I be the first to say this is an outstanding poem. Your poems always make never skip a word. Just loved it!
Thank you Jenna, this one is really sweet.
