Golden Memories Sonnet

My favourite childhood snack and I still eat it.

Thank you Getty images for this.

In tender years, with senses wide awake,

I savored hues of dawn, a morning bright,

As golden beams on bread would gently break,

A feast of warmth, a childhood's sheer delight.

With tiny hands, I'd spread the creamy paste,

Smooth peanut butter, rich and sweet in taste,

Then spoon the jelly, a crimson cascade,

A symphony of flavors so embraced.

The crackle of the toaster's gentle hum,

A melody that danced in kitchen air,

Transformed plain bread to memories, become

The essence of a snack so fond and rare.

Though years have passed, those moments still hold dear,

In peanut buttered dreams, nostalgia's cheer.
