Emile Pinet Poet Sonnet

Sweet-Scented Dreams

I can remember a springtime;
when cherry blossoms filled the air.
For that image is locked in time;
a fond memory stored with care.

Sweet-scented dreams of yesterday;
let me recapture childhood thoughts.
And replay in my mind the day
when paper boats morphed into yachts.

I still see them sailing downstream;
me, racing along, having fun.
For Spring taught me how to daydream;
enjoying a romp in the sun.

Spring's the Goddess of renewal;
and in Nature's crown: the jewel.
