Chocolate in the Bronx

I know some people
might mock or disdain my beloved
Hershey bar, favoring fancier or foodier options.
Not me. My grandfather taught me to savor
all the sweetness
on our walks
to get candy, newspaper, and
chitchat from the corner store,
Te Amo.
Lovely memories of someone that touched our heart are the best. Beautiful.
Thank you very much, Jeanette!
