Cacao Connoisseur’s Club Liner Notes

In a small shop in Firenze
I bought a bar of cioccolato.
Mild and delicate, my attention
On other things (in Firenze, there
are many other things!)
I thought it nice.

As I walked the streets and piazzas
And nibbled, the taste of rosy peaches
And apricots blended with the
Cioccolato and my attention
No longer lingered on other things.

I sit at my table and taste
Apricots and peaches and cioccolato
And my attention wanders
Along the the narrow sidewalks
And winding alleys, to a small shop
In Firenze.
