The taste of greatness, whether in a small dose or in high degree - no matter, does create wonderful memory. Beautifully thought, expressed and penned into a poem. Thank you dear Poetess Rose, for all these wonderful thoughts. I truly enjoy reading them.

We all have our moments of brightness where we shine brilliantly, some more than others. Then we are left with memories forever. Lovely poem.
