Box of Chocolates

A giant box was on our table,
In the shape of a heart.
Pink foil all around it,
I saw it at the shopping mart.

Looked inside to see within,
The smell, I won't forget,
Chocolate candy coated pieces,
While my nose inhaled this gift.

Could not decide which one to eat,
Peanut cluster, caramel, or nut.
But will always remember the day I found,
The box of chocolates.
