A Handy Recipe

Dear World,

Hate needs to go.  Therefore, I have invented a "hate elimination process." Please follow these simple instructions:

Look at both hands,
See the pads on your fingers, the lines, the scars
Everyone has these, EveryOne
Remember this
Then place the left hand over the right,
Press both on top of your heart
And joyfully proclaim "Hate Begone, Love Live On!"

If you still feel hatred brewing, Kindly repeat this process, until the glow of love grows in your chest.  It may feel a little warm, this is part of the normal settling process.

And if you believe this recipe is a little weak, feel free to order my new "Love Paint," which is equal parts chocolate and bliss.

It's easy make yourself:

First melt your favorite chocolate,
Next, dip in a finger (preferably your index),
Then, stick that chocolate coated finger slowly into your mouth
Close your eyes and smile
Feel free to repeat this process until you are full of love (and chocolate)

My apologies in advance to anyone who is allergic to chocolate, or who just plain doesn't like it.  Feel free to substitute your own favorite flavor--jelly, brandy, marshmallow creme...This is another mishmash of prompts from Poetic Asides Poem A Day;  Write a poem about an invention-Jane Shlensky; Write two poems, one a letter poem and the second a recipe poem-from Mike Grove.  Also, offered up for dversepoets.com, open link night where love is served every day.  :-)
