Fragrant Memories

Posted on the 04 September 2013 by Meera

Smell can be mild, smell can be wild
Leaving my memories mesmerizedSmell can be quiet, smell can be loudEntice to take me into the cloud, I enjoy...
                                    My granny’s chicken roast                                    Breakfast bread and toast                                    Tempering aroma of the fish                                    With onion, curry leaves and mustard seeds, I smelled...
Sniff of petrol from the carThe smoke out of my dad’s cigarMommy’s Lux and PalmoliveReminds me of those days, I lived...
                                     Nothing so riper                                     Like a freshly pooped diaper                                     Eww.. not every smell is good                                     But still it brings me back that mood, I irked...
My little brother’s eau-de-cologneThe baby powder, I applied on
Soft touch of that milky cheekWith my first sweet peck, I kissed...
                                      As the rain touched the land                                      Just enough to wet the sand                                      That breezy aroma mixed                                      With my first coffee brewed, I loved...Night lilies of the springWhich made my heart sing,Whiff of attar perfume's pleasant teaseBrings me back my Grandpa, I miss...
                                       Newly painted wet wall                                       It wholly consumed me tall,                                       Fresh bundle of grass and hay                                       Stacked then in my back yard, I’d say...
My first baked brownie in the ovenSmelled just like a heavenChocolate flavor filled the airWhile I was waiting to devour, I inhaled...
                                        Peculiar taste I used to dwell                                        By blowing off the candle and I smell                                        Achoo.. That dusty attic room
                                        I once went to clean with a broom, I sneezed...

Latenight movie ritual with my familyBowl full of popcorn to carrySmelled salty enough to steal my diet awayOffered a perfect ending of that day, I rejoiced...

                                         So as you can now tell                                         I have a keen sense for smell                                         Thinking of all these fragrances above                                         All over again, I simply fall in love... And I smile...!
