A flavour of ice cream

I loved in my youth

Brings back memories

But what is the truth?

Is it really the ice cream

That I desire

Or the innocence lost

That I require?

As the ice cream melts

This feeling remains

That the losses I've had

Are surpassed by the gains.



Short but fun to write.

What a beautiful poem. I'd use the word 'Awesome' but it has become so trite when set next to your ever growing in beauty poems. Each one better than the other but the word "Awesome' grows tired in comparison.
