Watered Down Juice

Serenity; not past ferality
Non-judging eye view, geniality
Love misconstrued for lust, misalignment 
Yesteryears, instinct was our sentiment 
Presence smiles today in tranquility

Life flow, a flux of continuity 
Images of past, consigned to memory 
Here and now, free of ego sediment 
Serenity

Free spirit, immune from fatality
Over time, sheds delusionality 
In time reclaims, our native element 
Electrified thus by the joy current
Our ascension slow but a certainty
Serenity

So true--sometimes images of past get consigned to memory. Well done in this hard to execute form, US (wish I knew your first name). BIG congrats on your win in Edward's contest.
