BLACK MAGIC

[Neville Briggs]

BLACK MAGIC


It's blacker than the darkest night
and casts a tempting magic spell.
See how it glides along, as smooth
as serpents from the pit of hell.
With supple, gleaming, plastic sheen,
yet soft with fragrant yielding heart.
Who can resist it's pungent tang,
at once so sweet and earthy tart.
Experience will prove
it's mystic power to move.
mmmm.......licorice.

Mmmmm, yummy! Doesn't last long in our household.

G'day Neville,

I thought you had some kind of new, darker than dark chocolate. Oh well licorice will have to do. It's my hubbies favourite.

[Maureen K Clifford]

and the best combination Zondrae is liquorice covered in chocolate - yuuuumy.

[Heather]

Neville I notice that the ladies are lining up for your licorice treats.

Heather

[Neville Briggs]

Thanks for the replies ladies. ( notice I didn't say sheilas, Manfred )

It isn't much, just a practice that I set myself to try and describe something that I thought was quite difficult to put into words.

Did you know ladies that the main ingredients of that slinky black confection are wheat flour and molasses.

[manfredvijars]

(errr, yes you did Nev) ...
... and checking out bottoms of the vats at the Bundy Rum distillery should turn Blokes AND Blokettes off licorice for life ...

[warooa]

Ah lick'rish . . . got the womens salivating there Nev. What about the red stuff Manfred? I thought licorice was a root?

Bob

[Heather]

Does Marty mean beetroot? Or perhaps he is thinking of sarsparilla - that's made from a root isn't it?

Bob, behave!
