Lemon Meringue Pie

Lemons picked from my tree
tart-sweet on the tongue
A bit of yellow heaven
Clouds of fluffy white
Beyond elegant
Smooth as silk
Grand!

One of my favorite deserts, my wife makes a great meringue pie. Now all I have to do is see if I can sweet talk her into making one, Blessings, Ron
