Chocolate makes the kiddies cheer.
Even better when kids in bed, mummy's turn to scoff instead.
Daddy doesn't get a nibble, serves him right for all that dribble!

sometimes chunky too,
Indulging makes me dreamy,
When in winter I have the flu.
Don't want to share,
I hide it away,
My kids don't care,
If I don't bring it out in the day!
ellierock 34p · 681 weeks ago
Because it's so sweet!

It helps me feel better & help my heartache sooth.
There are many things to make with chocolate , Have some, just for fun --
cappuccino, chocolate milk, mocha & cocoa -- try more than one!

The only thing that keeps my cravings in line.
Should I share it, save it, smell it or lick it,
It's too late to think because my kids have found it.
Running around the house chasing the Cadbury packet,
"I've got it!" I shout while my kids make a racket.
They tackle me to the ground,
snatch at the chocolates without making a sound
fill their little gobbs full of yummy chocolate blocks.
You just wait and see, I'll make you go to bed at 7 o'clock.

When I hide it from my ‘boy’,
It’s sweet & rich & yummy,
Brings a smile to this Mummy.
Chocolate brings me joy,
Much better than any toy,
It’s selfish not to share,
But in chocolate Heaven I don’t care.
Chocolate brings me joy,
Just don’t dare make it soy,
I’d walk the streets in bare feet,
To fetch myself a little treat.
Charlotte L. · 681 weeks ago
Such a yummy, sweet treat I'd love to win,
Sadly it never lasts long around here,
Gobbled down by the chocolate monsters I fear,
There's no place to hide it that they can't find,
But I'll always share it because I'm so kind :)
Merryl · 681 weeks ago
I cannot rhyme,
But I eat chocolate
All the time.
It doesn't cry,
Or yell or scream,
It gives me time
To sit and dream.
A Farmer's Wife · 681 weeks ago
Except I have an empty chocolate cupboard.
Which is a problem when I need to bribe the small
To do any of their jobs at all.
Please send me some currency.
So they pick up their toys, not me!

Where it is I can be found,
I enjoy it so much,
My toes I can not touch,
Delicious creations I want to try,
But too much of a cheapskate to go and buy
Deep Fried Fruit · 681 weeks ago
Do you know what I found?
Cadbury is the best by far
It makes the world go round!
They reckon Hershey's is kinda good
And Lindor is the bomb
But Cadbury beats them all hands down
The rest of them are wrong!

When I try ~ Cadbury's Marvellous Creations~ ,
I wish to buy all three in one location,
I've met with huge frustration,
For the stores i've visited have not all three sensations,
So my temptation has met with immense anticipation,
Boy! It'll be such a Celebration when I meet all three!
Rani Jeffers · 681 weeks ago
Especially when it's in my tummy.
Then it moves from my lips to my hips,
So I'll need that purple apron to help me cover this!
Michelle Vamvas · 681 weeks ago
It can turn your nightmares into the sweetest of dreams
If there's a darkened tunnel, its the light at the end
It cheers me up more than any best friend
It stops childish tantrums and band-aids can't compare
To fix any ailment, you just need chocolate to be there
Its reunited lovers, it gives low days a lift
Its the only hope you've got if you need an "I'm sorry" gift
Its your companion as you cry through the Notebook yet again
And it knows just how to please you (unlike many men!!!)
thehoovertribe 34p · 680 weeks ago
A bit of the chocolate of which you're raving.
I know its so sweet and such a great treat
But it'll be worth the scale I'm braving.

It will make you jump with joy, it will make you act so high.
chocolate, chocolate, chocolate chocolate chocolate,
Pay for the choclate with every last penny, and buy so many and many!
Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate chocolate chocolate!
It will make you scream, and sometimes will be covered in cream!
Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate chocolate chocolate,
when you take a nibble the side, it will take you on a fantastic ride!
Charlotte L. · 680 weeks ago
I think I love chocolate even more than you,
I can imagine a chocolate house,
I'd nibble at it daily like a mouse,
I'd love to have a chocolate bath,
All smoothed in chocolate,what a laugh,
So yes really it is true,
I really love chocolate ,oh yes I do!

When hubby enters the room I hide it behind the couch,
Yes, Cadbury Chocolate is meant to be shared,
But just this once sharing the joy of the Marvellous Creations is just to much to bear!

The bedside draw it is hidden in, this fattening sin.
I hide away, without a peep..licking my lips...
Rich and sweet, I do not share with the man this treat.
It is mine, for when I am off my feet.
I even see this chocolate in my sleep.
Counting chocolate, instead of sheep!
