Grass I love the scent of new mown grass It lights past moment’s hourglass It makes me sigh in shavings lie That lifts me to an azure sky To drink the magic mornings dew To reverie a host of you To vision butterflies in flight Touch a fantasies bright light It is a pleasure of my day To play the knight and come your way To tip my lance and ask perchance Be there a boon I can advance Or garland you some poetry A grassland bed for you and me To look into each others eyes And grab the ring of heavens prize I’d turn this wile into a dare, If you would be my lady fair? |

So, do we have good Lancelot on this fair and beautiful day? Or has our favored Quixote come hither, for dragons to slay?  |

Oh, and good morning to you Sir Sigh! "I’d turn this wile into a dare, If you would be my lady fair?" ~ A delightfully delicious invitation! I can well-imagine all your lady admirers lining up! ~ including a certain 'Earth Angel'!  Aw, shucks. I just fell back to earth when I realized that this was simply your 'sonneteering' way.  lolLoveya, T-Man! EA |

Sey, I always feel that smell is the one sense that has total control of the memory, the smell of hay always takes me back to my childhood and opens memory links so strongly that I feel I am actually there! This is a delightful read and forces the sense of smell into your words thus completing the chain. I must admit I did not know what to expect on reading the title though.... I still prefer the smell of hay to the smell of grass (LOL).... Ivor |

ivordavies The smell of hay and the smell of grass are quite different and would have different effects. Thanks for the read and comment. |
