Scent To School

Walking to grade school without a care Each morning at the same spot Freshly baked bread scent filled the air Straight from the oven, savory hot Aroma so sweet, I never forgot Laub's Bakery, a city block wide It looked like a factory instead I'd peek in the door ajar on the side Where that lovely smell filled up my head Etched in my brain, the essence of freshly baked bread

Thank you, Sara. I've rarely had an occasion to smell freshly baked bread since then. I'll recognize it, though, if I do. Thanks for the fun contest.
