Chocolate, Purple, November, too Kiss it, Set fire to it, Have you ever seen it? Down in Africa? Who will stop it? Here it comes again.

Tourists climb me, yet bare feet hate me.

Look at plans before you start. Make it grow, part by part. Take your time, just be smart The best advice, I can impart.

I start with the simplest verb, Hide a pronoun in my core, My end is lured by flame, But I outgrow them all.

Pressed in red, I prove a king, I bark on ice and guard the shore, Break me and I can't hold a thing, My kiss approves, my lips ignore.
