The Days In a Box of Chocolates

The days can be like a box of choclates:

                                          Sweet,
                                           bitter,
                                           sticky,
                                        tenacious,
                                          round,
                                          square,
                                          lumpy,
                                           nuts,
                                          crispy,
                                          bright,
                                           dark.

        How has your day been? What kind of chocolate could make it better!

Really like the ways you used the different kinds of chocolate to describe the days...excellent use of a simile. It implies that all of your days are good ones (especially if you like chocolate...and who doesn't?). (Thank you for reading my poem, and for the warm welcome to the soup.)

Hmmm?...I think today would be a light chocolate with a raspberry center! This is a neat concept for a poem..I did hear that you are now a regular on the Soup,..I just didn't know how to spell your name..thanks for initiating a handshake to me by reading my latest...very nice of you, darling. Relating anything in this life to coffee or chocolate is really up my alley! An adrenaline junkie, I thrive on these things. Check your soup mail..Gwendolen
