Insatiable Memories

Only bones remain
from a life devoured
by the appetite of time
with only the aroma
of a past lingering over
insatiable memories
that now hunger for more
though more will never come
as the dust settles on a plate
now empty.

Oh, how true. And how expertly expressed.

thanks Denise, I just wrote this as a challenge from a friend. I will post her poem if she permits me.
