I smelled the forest jasmine,
wild but profound in its perfume.
My bones filled with the perfume
spread on my being to wake me from my dreams.
I heard the silent music of the night
and felt it kissing my lips softly.
In my heart there were rhythms
unheard of before.
My limbs moved
to a song and its rhythms
and I felt the softness of the petals
of the sweet smelling jasmine.
A very beautiful poem, Dr. Anthony! . Jasmine is a flower adored specially by the women of south India. The ladies love to adorn it in their hair. The photograph of the wild Jasmine flower is excellent. I loved the way you have portrayed your emotion for this fragrant flower with an element of music and rhythm to it. Nature and flowers are my favourites tooI I have been planning to write one poem on Jasmine for a long while but have not reached there yet. Felt so good reading your poem.
I smelled the forest jasmine, in this beautiful poem shared with wise and nice mind. This entirely wins heart of reader. Softness of petals of words like this interesting poem improves vastness of expression. Nicely drafted and shared.10
