Everyone has a favourite candy or chocolate as a kid,
I loved 5 Star with all my heart, yes I did.
Whenever running errands, I’d save money,
Sang praises of my shrewd self, funny.
I’d consciously collect the money required,
One chocolate in a month was all I desired.
In the receipts of things bought I was interested,
Working maths, how many chocolates could I buy instead.
Everything in my world was somehow connected to 5 Star,
I loved the caramel and nougat mix covered milk chocolate bar.
Material world existed in the multiples of 5 Star for me,
All A+s would get me one, my parents would agree.
I am a grown up now and things have changed,
Anything for God to help us get our lives re-arranged.
I am a 90’s kid and love my childhood stories,
The mere sight of 5 Star brings back happy memories.
