d’Verse Poets Quadrille 10 – breeze
it was a breeze that brought the scent
of summer roses to my room
I closed my eyes and thought of you
and nights we spent along the stream
I felt your kisses on my lips and heard you
whisper words of promised love
Oh I do love the thought of a scented breeze like that….wonderful

And I wonder if the promise ended more quickly than the scent on the breeze. I hope not. Lovely poem.

It was a breeze that brought the scent, was it the breeze that took the promise away? Beautiful poem. 🙂
