As time goes by Days best uncluttered The good life Coasts uncomplicated My wishes are few And quite simple I crave peace and Happy settings Moments of seclusion Where I can be creative Amuse my inner child Dance drenched in sunshine And taste serenity AP: 1st place 2021, Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on January 10, 2020 for contest WHAT ARE YOUR WISHES sponsored by CHANTELLE ANNE COOKE - RANKED 2ND

I think you captured the way poets crave a taste of serenity. Anyway that is how I interpret this poem. - very well written - Serenity is what I require to attempt writing a poem.

Absolutely and I hope you do find serenity, Michael. It works for me.
