Aroma of Memory

 

Aroma of Memory

A Poem by Dominick

 

A scent rolls over the curves

of my upper lip.

 

My eyelids shut instantly,

with a big inhale,

as a memory of you wafts past;

an aroma of pleasure.

 

My soul reaches out to you,

running fingers gently down your back;

a soft whisper.

 

A chill, a ringing in your ear;

all signs that someone is thinking of you.

I hope you feel my recollection.

A lovely piece.

Original concept, to be wanting someone to experience the mythical sensations of being thought about by another. Nice details and imagery.

This is a pleasant read. Hope the person who received the email liked it too.
Thanks for posting this.

If words had a scent, then this is oder-rich. The mixture of senses is great: "I hope you feel my recollection"

[Blackbirdsong]

This is sexy, sensuous without going overboard into saccharine or even graphic territory. You imbue the sense of the titles, the aroma of memory perfectly here. This reads like a sensuous tease...teasing our senses with evocative images that you hint and tease at. That works perfectly here.

Beautifully written, with some great lines. Great Write.

Wow. I really enjoyed this poem.

"My soul reaches out to you,
running fingers gently down your back;
a soft whisper."

So beautiful. Thank you.
