A box of chocolate? That caught my attention. Love chocolate!
Gims, chick, Chatty, Ed2, Eagle I love all your poems. Gims must be related to Vincent Van Gogh, walking around with an unattached ear! Morale of that lesson: Don't go to Dr. Harris!
I'm gonna see if I can write a poem using fickle, vinegar, elephant, night owl, thread, broke, hurt and end. Here goes:

A night owl is either human or fowl,
Both are mean but it's the guy that will growl.
Nocturnal habits, each one has,
The bird is active but he isn't bad.
A party animal runs around every night,
He doesn't sleep and he loves to fight.
Some men are fickle and morally weak,
Then again the owl has sharp talons
and a short hooked beak.
The elephant and the owl,
have nothing in common, it's true,
The elephant never forgets but
it will seldom mistreat you.
So what I'm saying I guess, dear friend,
Vinegar won't sour an expression faster then,
The decision to deliberately offend,
Nocturnal beings, whether fowl or men.


I started to sew an ole worn shirt,
But the needle broke and my hand did hurt.
Then I noticed the spool of thread,
Was near the end, so I went to bed.


Forget the night owls and elephants, my poetry has gone to the dogs!
