The Floral Garden

My eyes drank in the beauty of this magnificent floral garden My senses became aware of the deep intoxicating aromatic sweetness That hung heavily in the air My mouth savored, my nostrils pulled in glorious scents It left me clinging, longing ,to remain in this exotic haven With each step the aromas became aromatic scented treats As I walked down this enchanting pathway I breathe the thick fragrance that hung in the air As the gate opened I slipped inside the flower garden It was so vibrant, so colorful, so powerful That it overwhelmed my sense of smell As I drank in the beauty before me I thought, I am so happy to be alive To feel, to see, to smell and drink in this floral beauty.
