Aromatic Souvenirs

In the edifice of memory, we slowly blend...

a citrus scent of tangy orange peels
with freshness sniff of cinnamon cakes.

an ephemeric smell of wet shampooed hair 
with a spritz of cologne ruminating the spray.

an evening brew of chamomile soothed tea
burbling in resonance with expreso sunrise.

a whiff of sandal  lingering in bath towel 
with an ambrosial soul, in lavender incense.

that seductive night with a jasmine garland 
delighting feminine fragrance in a rose pool.

perfumed petals wafting on gentle breeze
with a nostalgia of infused wet petrichor.

In the castle of these redolent remembrance
transfusing our breath, inhaling an invisible
It's love at first smell, an odor that's too near 
diffusing pheromones of aromatic souvenirs.
