Scent Of Love Poem by Fay Slimm

Scent Of Love

Rating: 4.9


Follow it avidly if ever you catch
A scent of real love.
Oh, it is rare.
Like high mountain lily that ever matches
Itself with the sweetest
Perfume, daring
To smell like no rose, it grows true and never
Gives out aromas
Of make-believe.
Genuine love has the same
Inhaled, ever
True- to -self smell.
No chance of reprieve
From the scent of soul-love
When whole-heartedly
Shown. Breathe it in when found,
So true love can start.

'Gives out aromas Of make-believe. Genuine love has the same Inhaled, ever True- to -self smell.' We get the aromatic flavor of love here which is so soft, so lovely. My 10 added to it with pleasure.

The sentiment is beautiful and so is the way the words roll off the tongue. I like it very much.

The fear of such a true love does haunt my soul, To have her in my arms for splits second in time and space... and the chance of losing her overwhelms me my biggest fear in life 'Is that SCENT OF LOVE' Because after you look into those eyes and becoming one........ so Sorry this comment will have to be continued at a later date... I'm simple speechless 10++++++++++++++++++++++++
