I

when i was made

i promised a lot

zesty , light and zingy

fresh tasting lemon

cloudlike meringue

and a buttery biscuit base

II

Each spoonful

supposedly

taking you off

to the greens of the med

where my fruit grew

and blue skies shone

III

Initial reactions –

Brilliant

till about the

third mouthful

when delightful flavour

became a toasty mess

IV

Perhaps

eating the biscuit

before the lemon was

a bad idea

zingy toasty biscuit

needs more meringue
