How svelte, how elegant, how sparing the line.
Just a dash of yellow
or a wash of magenta.
The tilt of the head,
the cool appraising glances,
the enigmatic smiles,
the chocolates.
Our favourites for Christmas, Easter and birthdays.
A surefire present for Mother.
All in this iconic black box,
where even the corrugated paper inside
smelt good enough to eat.
So what have Nestle done?
They've changed them!
I can't find anyone with a good word to say for them.
Which are your favourite chocolates?
Don't you hate it when they do that?!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite chocolate right now is Green & Black's. Every type I've tried is just scrumptious!
Hope you find a new favourite!!!
I love the one with cherries in it but one day I bit on a stray stone which was painful. They sent me some vouchers in recompense (because I told them they needed to warn people and apparently they do but in such tiny writing) so I bought one bar of each type. All delicious.
ReplyDeleteThose were the days hey?! When life was simpler, and advertising had pure class!
