Chocolate and Strawberries

Its not those impressions,
Seemingly so singular at the time,
That I thought I would never forget
Where I was , and what I was doing.

One rainbow over the Koolau Mountains
I’d never forget, long forgotten.
But my first taste of Chocolate and Strawberries
Always returns to bring a renewed sense of delight.

Not merely the taste,
I recall the improbable image;
“What a great idea!
How clever the author.”

Chocolate and strawberries was a forbidden treat,
When I could still be surprised.
