AMBROSIA NIGHTS
Nights were, when the calming scent of Ambrosia
Wrapped me like skin, cuddling like moon perimeters

Keeping me secured and enlightened stayed confined
My thoughts never drifted beyond the sound of breath

My heart was light with giggles and laughter, heady
As if consumed of wine in long stem glasses, cheers!

My wishes were pasted to eternity stretching into
Unknown places sensed in the sensuality of moment

Etched in the echoes of time silent and unwavering
You held me tenderly you were scented in Ambrosia

    The whole poem is woven so gracefully and delicately. "My thoughts never drifted beyond the sound of breath" specially love this.

    They say that perfume is the most evocative of the senses, taking us back directly to past moments. Reading this, I believe it!
