Scent

Abide with grace that love now shows:
Feel the fond thrill that heart knows well,
Rise with sure face to greet fine glow;
Apt dear goodwill that mind can dwell,
Glimpse a sparkle in arc of flight;
Reach a knowing that frames clear sighs,
Act flings and swirls in a new light;
New sense showing in scented highs,
Touch precious dreams as waves come forth.
See what you see in fragrant mood,
Charm wears a scheme as thoughts stream north;
Embrace surely the wholesome good,
Nurture fond feel as words paint thoughts,
Time surely heals the wounded plot.

Hi Leon, You poem flow well, but I feel your rhyme scheme is a little forced. By this I mean, try not to use identical endings: sighs/highs; dwell/well etc. Instead try something like sighs/butterflies or well/quell. Good luck on future writings!
