The Perfect Occupation

I would like to be a Chocolatier

I think I have what it takes

This type of job appeals to me

Where I can eat my own mistakes

 

The basic ingredients are edible

Cooking textures may cause concern

I may not make the perfect shapes

But I am sure that I can learn

 

I would mix, melt and experiment

In a quest to get my techniques right

But I suspect I would only end up

With trouser waistbands getting tight

 

Perhaps it’s just a pipedream

(I would eat more than I could sell)

So, it’s better that this type of job

Is left to those who can do it well

 

What shape is an ideal chocolatier?

Are they slim or slightly round?

Are the slightly round still practising?

Have the slim ones, perfection found?

 

I don’t suppose that it really matters

The girth of a chocolatiers waist

The proof is always in the scoffing

Of their chocolate with its yummy taste
