Notes About The Poem

A Special Place

A special place that I remember well from childhood days so long ago, an upstairs space that drew me in by smell. There often I would want to go where pungent wafts of cedar pleased me so. The walk-in closet in my mom's bedroom; such happy times I spent in there, in trying on her clothes among perfume of cedar wood lined everywhere. Sweet flashbacks, to this day- stirred by its air.
