Poetic Memory

In the bland mists of time begotten,
T’was once thine fair lady forgotten,
Lost in the realms of dreams so deep,
Dreams of happiness she couldn’t keep,
When tied in thoughts so hardly retained,
She would lose her mind and be so pained,
Therefore she’d undertaken watchful thinking to pertain,
The knowledge that she sought to try and maintain!

Hither came the tides of charm so sweet,
To mould your mind so perfect a treat,
A Bain be you of the thoughts mislaid,
Like mislaid hundreds of a debt unpaid,
Yet still your thoughts can try and still deny,
A perfect moment on which stability does rely,
Stability of a staple mind so innocent with its charm,
The charm of a thousand good deeds of patient calm!

Any contribution?

Well writing about memory is not really a poetic subject i dont think... that kind of thing should be painted not written.

No it's okay. I don't think that many people will have heard of her. The recognition of her work came far too late - she was old and dying. She was a literary success around the 60s/70s i think, but her work is still pretty much embraced now.
