.
the essence of you
.
Fragrances come and go
While your scent lingers
Breathing new life
like a paramedic
mouth to mouth, soul to soul
For you are a potpourri of aromas
A bouquet of love poems
Enchanting my senses
A whiff of romance
On a starry night in June
You are the perfume
Resuscitating my heart
As I breathe love
Every time I inhale
The essence of you
Hi TLAB. Beautiful poem! I wanted to let you know that somehow on some wordpress blogs I can only give likes or follow inside the reader and not directly on your blog. So far it happens with those blogs that have personalized names like yours. Wanted to let you know.
