Horizons

Memory serves itself dessert
Lingering temptations skirt
Folding fantasy sweet as cream
Necessities still hungry dream

Careen, we always toward the west
In salvage sunset from its rest
Fearful darkness might lead dawn
Memory serves well itself to feed upon

Passed by the days in gentle deeds
Hoping blossoms from the seeds
Glazed advance, compared to then
Softly come, remember when

I remember you're good

Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

more than good, you are excellent, I would say!

'Memory serves itself dessert'---Oh I can't tell you how much I like that line!  There's a light touch to this whole poem that I truly appreciate.

Interesting ‘write’!

The beginning and ending lines
(and images) are particularly fine!:

“Memory serves itself dessert”;

“Passed by the days in gentle deeds
Hoping blossoms from the seeds…
Softly come, remember when”

Applause!

[I, for one, could use some new 'horizons!']
