Sweet Memories. Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Sweet Memories.

Rating: 5.0


Red, white, pink and colorful roses,
White jasmine and Gardenia,
Wild white orchids,
Early morning balsams,
Mesmerizing palm flowers,
Have the same story to say,
Fragrances of these blooms,
Reach the mind to kindle,
The loving feeling of an event,
And then rekindle,
The loving memories of that event,
Always as long as we can remember.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Like songs, and places...the sense of smell becomes plethorally sharp and impacting to the mind and heart...I can still trace the scent of the perfume that my very first teen love wore...'Eau de Love'...And with it comes the images of those special moments...all good now, but at the time of the break-up, at 16yrs. old, it was heartache central! lol! Well; Done, Vee!
