Was it tuna?

The world in black and blue,
no visible outline, the colors 
blur. Headlights bright red,
and the people covered
in smoke as I stand in the back-
alley surrounded by old graffiti  
stains and a half eaten tuna fish
sandwich. The alley cats
devour the carcass leaving
the bones and eyes behind.
I look at the eyes and I see

Sweet Scent

sweet scent of roses
vivid aromas tickle my nose
I am reminded of you

In a New York City minute

another weekday
she awakens
to the sunrise aroma of
preset coffee brewing

her eyes still closed
she thinks about her day
and slowly starts to form
thoughts in her head

so much to do
so little time
a jolt of java
revs up the engine

give her a minute
she'll come to life
another sip
and there it is

it's all systems go!

Sweet Aroma

Miracle of fragrance
Comes out from every dishes
Made in your kitchen.

Winter Jasmine

Sweetness is a Jasmine January                    
Seeds its scent along the inkberry   
Starflowers streaming a fecund path
I bask in a heavenly perfumed bath
Winter bouquets an Elysian Field sanctuary

Jasmine scents ladies of the night

Scent Of Aroma

Smell of coffee
Same experience indeed with
Smell of the sea.

Autumnal Zephyr

The trees dressed in their carnival clothes
Gold and scarlet of the autumn days 
They play about the earthy hues 
Of boughs and boles
Proud flag of any sky
I take in the freshly calm air 
With that hint of an earthly aroma
The fragrance of homeliness 

Nature's aroma

A soothing wind blow,
Leaves follow a shaky show.

Looks brilliant with Sun’s glow,
See,its nature’s go.

Beauty is nature’s momento,
Think deep and not shallow.

Natural aroma is great to follow,
Fly like eagle and keep clouds below.

See the beauty of nature’s meadow,
Sunlight and the cast of shadows.

We have signed the nature’s manifesto,
Either an entrant or a veteran fellow.

Autumn aroma

                                      Soft, subtle and sublime 
            

Back To School

Early September rain 
A dampened sidewalk, 
Wet leaves lead me back
To blackboards and chalk

The wood of the desks
Cupboards along the wall,
Fresh, clean and simple 
Newly awakens it all

The lessons learned
Countless memories made,
A moment forgotten ...
I'm back in fourth grade 

The sharpened pencils
The crayon's shaving,
Add up to the many
Aromas worth saving

Pink erasers, notebooks
A new binder that

In a labyrinth of tangled threads, we struggle, always breathing the aroma of death

In a labyrinth of tangled threads, we struggle, always breathing the aroma of death,
Playing on the edge of our graves like children who do not know the destruction of flames.
The justification for our love of this game
And the endless desire to escape what ends our suffering
Is the greatest enigma.
It has taken all our books, quirky
