PERFUME OF THE RAIN

(Covid 19 has robbed me of scent, what an absolute loss)

They say you don't miss it till
it's gone

Well, this is not true
Particularly
With you...

I was always so aware
So in tune...would turn my
head to the rose, inhale of
That flower

Drink the perfume of the rain
after each
 falling shower
Couldn't help it, was drawn
The aromas held...
Such power

I'd breath deep of the sunset
It has a scent, did you know?
I'd just soak up that fine moon,
as
I held her in view...

And the farm smells, the
ponies

The berries trees grass
All lost to me now, hell 
The good things don't last...
 
Even dawn had her perfume
All those colours splashed
around, and 
Oh, the smell of it all
Its in the small things
Somehow...

And I knew this, I loved this
And I just want to say
There are holes in my life
Now... I live a less day
