Chocolove Chocolate Bars are Awesome and come with Love Poems

Lecture Upon the Shadow - a Love Poem by John Donne. Wrapped in within the Chocolove Wrapper

Looking to gift someone a nice chocolate bar this Valentine’s Day? Here is a recommendation – Chocolove, a Boulder, Colorado based company makes awesome Chocolate Bars, like the Salted Peanut in Milk Chocolate (see pic below). Well we know because one of our team-mates was the lucky recipients of this awesome bar yesterday!

The chocolate is not only delicious, the wrapper has nice “love poems” inside them. This one contained a poem called “Lecture Upon the Snow”, written in 1896, i believe by John Donne, a famous metaphysical poet of the time

It is quite a deep poem – sort of saying how the love also goes through different stages like the day and the sunshine/shadows do – some analysis here.
