Description: For Writing 201: Day 8! An ode using apostrophe and a drawer theme was my challenge for this day. I wanted to write a serious ode, because the last ode I wrote was about fruit loops, I believe… But, in the end, that didn’t happen. However, it rings very true to me… and hopefully to some of you.
When mountains of stress fall upon
When friends betray and lovers reject
And bodies curl with symptoms ill
There is only one comfort that truly succeeds
In dulling the sorrow, the anger, and grief
It breaks and melts troubles away
It sweetens the most sour of days
Oh, open for me, dear drawer!
Reveal to me my life sustainer!
Let me see
Let me taste
My chocolate
Scraps of Paper 
Yes! The secret chocolate stash drawer!

I have one too! Not much of a secret, right enough, but a comfort in emergencies – mostly…

It can be very important! I gave my friend some “emergency chocolate.” She said she DEFINITELY got her use out of it. Made a hard day better.
