I was DAZED! ! ! <br /> <br /> <br />The creamy light brown, the dark? <br />The caramel topped, the milky? <br />Hey, the one with wafers or the coconut sprinkle? <br />DOUBT! ! ! <br /> <br /> <br />The delay earned me an angry glare. <br />After speedy contemplation, <br />Settled, my hands, on the rarely chosen, <br />Exquisite, Swiss chocolate mousse. <br /> <br /> <br />Walking back home <br />IMPATIENCE! ! ! <br />Grabbing the cover, <br />I tore it open. <br /> <br /> <br />The warm chocolate melted, in my mouth, <br />Tickling the happy sensation. <br />Occasional Hazelnuts doubled the ecstasy. <br />The sweet, trickled down tastefully. <br /> <br /> <br />But nothing lasts forever - a truth <br />The empty wrapper, joined others.... <br />Left me thinking.... <br />'When would be the next stroll with dad?
