Fragrant Whispers

Each word
           From deep within
           I heard

           Husky
           Inaudible;
           Musky

           The smell
           Of perfumed sighs
           Chanel.

So very creative as always. I really don't know how they can judge these there are so many wonderful writes. It is why I do not do contests I would have so many tied for first. A wonderful poem Paul!

Thank you Maurice. I'm like you....I would not want to be a sole judge; I do not envy our sponsors for they have a hard job on their hands. cheers.// paul

Your last three lines could almost run solo as a haiku. You took care of what little words you had at your disposal. Enjoyed the muse.

Smells in the air -- some are loud and foul, sharp and spicy, while others are soft and sweet -- this my friend is well penned and the aroma is intoxicating.
