A Moment In Time

The scent was oh so pure.
It captured me
to float and breathe.
It lingered for a time.
then drifted on.

I got her to come and breathe in its purity.
I mentioned that now was the moment to enjoy it.
But she forgot to be present now.
The past crept in and in that moment 
enjoyment was forgotten.
