Enchanting Melodies

C h o c o l a t e L a n d

I took a walk out

Of the ordinary today.

I didn't work, rest, nor did I play.

I walked out my front door

With a wish,

A wish that I could walk to a

Chocolate land.

So I closed my eyes and imagined

And there it was in my mind.

A fudge chocolate gate

Stood in front of me.

I ran up to it with urgency,

The gate was locked

And could not be opened.

A note in white chocolate

Stared me in the face,

It simply said in big bold italics

"Please eat your way through the fudge gate."

And so I did.

I took a huge bite

And chewed and chewed.

(And because I'm imagining it, my hunger is never satisfied and I cannot get sick.WaaHaa! )

I finished my bar of chocolate

And huddled through.

I could hardly believe

What lay before me!

The clouds were only

Forty feet above the ground,

And they were made from

Vanilla fairy floss.

There was a light rain,

In the near distance.

I ran over and cupped my hand,

To try some.

(Sip Sip)

It tastes like a

Strawberry smoothy.

(Then I noticed)

There are 3 fast flowing rivers,

I hurry over to the first and taste.

(Sip Sip)

Woah!! It's Coca Cola!

(As fizzy as ever)

Then I scramble over to the next.

(Sip Sip)

It's thick rich chocolate milk!

Smooth as silk.

I grope with amazement

And look at the surrounding forest.

A chocolate mousse swamp,

Surrounded by sugar trees.

(With mint leaves and chocolate ball berries)

I jump into the mousse swamp

And float in its thick fudge.

(After 1 hour)

I get out of the swamp

And trip on a dark rock near.

The edge just as I get out,

The rock cracked open

And out flowed.

Smooth Rich creamy caramel.

(So I dived on to it and devoured as much as my mouth could take)

As I get up and I look forward,

An abundance of roses

Just lay ahead.

These weren't ordinary roses

Like in your garden bed.

These were chocolate roses!

Each one a different flavor,

A different texture;

A different taste.

The ground was littered with

Mars, Snickers, Twix, Bounty, etc.

I look all around and notice,

Walls made of cadbury

Ten kilo blocks!

I took a step forward

And trip on a log of biscuit.

Wafers and chocolate!

It says, 'Time Out."

And slowly my world

Melts and fades.

Fades and then disappears.

I woke up back in the real world!
