The Scent Of A Woman Poem by Aimanu B. Ali

The Scent Of A Woman

Rating: 4.8


They find me beautiful
Some send their furtive glances
On my way like a coy mistress
Others confront me in the eyes.
With sauciness survey my body hurriedly
I pass by haughtily aware of them
Men they throng at my door
Come creeping crawling by night
Married men young bachelors
Their guilty eyes blinded by the sun
Softly knock at my door
Knowing I am alone in my room
No more afraid I laugh aloud
They scurry away quailed
On the street I meet them
Squinting eyes greedy
Their quick glance expectant
Drawn by my smile
May be the look in my eyes
Or is it the scent of my hair
Obfuscated they shake heads
A smile plays on my lips slowly
They sniff for the scent of my body
The scent of the woman in me.

A smile plays on my lips slowly They sniff for the scent of my body The scent of the woman in me. A scent of woman can not be superseded by ordinary scents which are being used. Women do have this sense hence poetess smiles on the stupidity of all an sundry.A very well written and well thought out poem.Please Keep sharing the essence.10/10 Col Muhammad Khalid Khan

The very title is attractive, exudes some kind of scent. The poem holds the readers' curiosity till the end. A good poem. Appropriate words used with specific connotation. If this is neither saucy nor 'even about love', I wonder what it is. Sniffing for the scent obviously leads to something.....
