Ode to Scent

Ode to Scent

I know what it smells like when snow is on the way
When summer rains turn into fall, and groundhog goes astray

But springtime always follows in a rainbow of scent
To tell me life’s a cycle and time cannot be spent

I sense the buds, the multitudes, just under wet and white
They will push forth to live once more and make our world shine bright

Smells-hyacinth & genet, and many pretty flowers
Will offer up their essences with all their other powers

And blend in the creation, each and every bloom,
To synergize and energize this stuff we call perfume
