A box of chocolates,
beautifully presented,
in gilded paper box, with red ribbon,
complete with a tiny flower (plastic though).
A box of chocolates,
all heart-shaped.
Six gold-paper-wrapped, three in red.
After gazing at it to heart's content,
time to share them.
Shared we did - the hard-working ones around that day.
Leaving one, the one right in the centre,
the heart-shaped choc at the heart of the box.
The chocolate heart,
right at the epicenter, right at the core.
Yet so alone, so isolated.
Still, a breath away,
other hearts loyal and steadfast,
give of support and camaraderie.
