Frozen Aroma

FROZEN AROMA

the wind
blowing on new fallen snow
a frozen aroma
that lingering perfume
since you left


thinking out
a winter window
i feature you a flake of snow
i tried to touch and hold
but gone in a moment forever

Memories of winter arise in this set of tanka. I love the idea of a frozen aroma. Lovely ~ Delice

I can smell the snow with this one, Daver...snow does have an aroma. Icycles don't smell though depending on where they're hanging from, some do taste. =/ My favs are the ones hanging from tree branches. This write tastes melancholy...sort of bitter, someone sad and sour. Love you bunches!!! Mikki
