Ode To Chocolate

I had to write an ode poem for Humanities class.  We were instructed to choose something silly, so I chose chocolate.  Here it is:

Chocolate, 
Oh chocolate,
You warm me head to toe.
Your smooth silky texture,
Feels like velvet against my tongue.
Chocolate, 
Oh chocolate
your sweet sweet taste,
Will shoot my mind to the moon,
Whisking me away from reality.
Chocolate, 
Oh chocolate,
The joy you spread,
Reaches abound the universe,
dissolving children's hearts.
Chocolate,
Oh chocolate,
Your deep brown surface
Like rich dark tree bark,
Mesmerizes the greedy fingers
Of schoolkids.Chocolate,
Oh chocolate,
You are the base of my life,
You make me calm,
And you always satisfy.
