Creating Happier Memories...

Some bad memories
Had decided to stay
And kept hurting me
I distinctly remember
It was a starry chilling night
With my feelings getting frozen
I thought to have some warmth
And quietly collected all those
Bad memories in an empty corner of
My otherwise overfull mind
And burnt them
Oh, ignorant I, couldn’t imagine
That the acrid stench
Emanating from the simmering ashes
Would become the bane
Of otherwise a happier life
Years of soothing balm
Of love and care
Has made the impact of leftovers
Pretty tepid
Which I wish to preserve forever
So that I can then enjoy
The delicious taste,
Of the happier memories
A lot more, yes,
The memories being created by
My family of loving angels....
