SPRING AIR The air in spring does so entice Like blends of aromatic spice It would suffice to say that mice And birds live free in paradise The scents of spring do so refresh The lilac air and perfumed flesh They mesh in all of April’s fresh And breathe new life in every breath I smell the swell of fresh and new The nice of spice on morning dew I sense the scents of lilac too But twice as nice, the scents of you Elizabeth Santos |

I would like to thank you all for your very kind responses. I didn't like this poem after I posted it, and so I was hoping it would drift away, but it kept coming back. But I'm glad some of you liked it. And I thank you for your comments. Much appreciated Liz PS And my children and I loved the smellivision remark [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 04-05-2000).] |
