'THE DARKER THE BERRY...'

'The darker the berry, the sweeter the taste!"
Why let the chance of a kiss go to waste?
Will you grant me experience of that sweetness?
It would give my life a sense of completeness.
With your deep chocolate skin and ebony hair
you bewitch this man who has tired of the fair.

This berry is more than ripe for the picking,
let us seize the day while life's clock is ticking.
I've kissed many a woman under the sun
but none of skin darker than a toasted bun.
Let us reverse Othello and Desdemone,
and permit our skins a mingling of tone.
