Scents I Love
SCENTS I LOVE
Jasmine! Jasmine! Jasmine!
Varieties of Jasmine:
All favorite of mine.
Most alluring the special kind
enlivening mind
is termed ‘JNUI’ in Bengali
Really
The Fragrance Queen.
to entwine
reminiscence of forgotten love,
exceptional charm of First Love.
Jasmine perfume
to resume
my romance of bygone days afresh.
Hypnotic, mystic
entrancing, exciting my olfactory cells
to tell remembrances associated.
Another gorgeous scent in glamour
brings back my emotive senses
spreading romantic aroma of my amour
is the sweet smell of Rose at variance
mesmerizing my dormant desired dreams.
I can never forget,
sometimes to lament,
sometimes to rejoice, as I recollect.
Attractive redolence of Gardenia recalls my Mom’s memory.
Again, Jasmine to remind
my Idol, Philosopher and Guide
My Dad:
who held same fascination for scent of ‘JNUI’.
Strong powerful lovely scent works on me
to rewind
long-lost days left behind.
