Incense Dreams
The sweet scent of incense in the air
Ignites a memory deep within my mind
Of longing stares
and held breaths
of wish me nots
and of past regrets
Of should have moments
that could have led to future enjoyments
All this from incense.

I liked the smell of this… but frankly I didn’t understand it…. Then again I’m not that smart when it comes to understanding you girls and your dreams…

Sensory memory lock is such a powerful thing. A memory so intrinsically linked to a scent that it immediately evokes that moment. Perfectly captured here

Love the longing and the way the poem floated structurally like a draft of incense

The scent of incense has a childhood memory with me, back in the boyhood, we used to burn those sweet stones on some ritual occasions, and the perfume would linger all day long, sending the house into a cozy ambiance,
thanks for sharing Fia. Hamid.
