Scents
A free verse poem about certain scents that bring back fond memories and induce positive feelings
A tiny pond of brewing chamomile tea in a white china mug
Lavender essential oil sprayed on my smooth, baby hands
Ocean mist perfume smudged onto my wrists
Crispy, breaded tilapia cooking in the oven
Mint chocolate chip ice cream and hot fudge sauce sitting in a plastic sundae cup
A bed of colourful pansies and orchids I’ve passed by
A steamy, aromatic bowl of Vietnamese pho perching in front of my famished face
A giant, paperback library book I stick my small button nose in
A fragrant pool of turquoise water I dunk my stunning body in
A silent, mystical forest I enter and amble along
