Remember This flowering rose sweetly smells of spice Awakening senses, I nose it thrice Tilt its nectar, capture its remember That I might indulge, come cold December Such detail: a spider's web, tightly bound, Swiftly, follow silk spirals all around As if seen in multi-petal'd flower Then one might locate one’s central bower... It buds blood red, then blue purples its hue Then, by faith, succumbs to its deepest true Its scent dwells clear, deeper in one’s lone mind A greater gift, one should not look to find. Summer, linger or leave, ‘tis no matter This remembered scent shall not be tattered. ![]() " It matters not this distance now " Excerpt, Yesterday's Love |

If I Remember that I hope it's on my death bed...so I won't feel so bad about leaving. One two three one two three one two three...repeat that for 24 hours then try again. |

Dear Sissie So lovely! To inhale a fregrance thus, is to remember where one was and also proof that everything continues in some way or form. Perhaps that is the essence of faith. ![]() |

I've heard that scent is the strongest memory... taking us back effortlessly. *S* I like this so very much... especially the closing couplet! |

"It buds blood red, then blue purples its hue" Karilea I have a nose memory of purple roses sent when last it was cold they were sprinkled with fairy dust you have reminded me of winter love so different from the summer kind |
