The jar filled with chocolates

Glass jar filled with various assorted chocolates and truffles on a wooden surface — A glass jar overflowing with assorted chocolates sits on a rustic table.

 I look at it
The jar filled with chocolates

Each piece assorted
Wrapped with care
& I wonder how similar
It is with memories
Of  my childhood 
Coloured with innocense,
Heartfelt laughter & joyrides
The living in the moment
Close Friends & the fun games
sweet & nostalgic
years that flew by
before I could appreciate 
& know that adulting is hard
those were infact the best days

I look at it, again
The jar filled with chocolates...

Your poem made me nostalgic. It took to those simple innocent days of childhood. Adulting is hard and how we always wanted to grow up as a child and now we know the truth, those were the best days indeed!
