Haiku for One Single Impression

One Single Impression posts: Thanks to Geraldine of My Poetic Path for this week's prompt, fragrance. Please visit her blog here for her poetic offering for this week.




floating summer scent
freed by sprinkler's lazy arc
flashbacks from fragrance
~~

fragile memory
wrapped in scent of rosemary
opening my heart

Beautiful haiku. Especially loved the last one. What better messenger than rosemary.

Isn't it amazing? One whiff of something, in your case rosemary, and your mind flies back thirty years.

Good ones, Sue.

Wonderful what those scents will revive. My smeller doesn't work very well but a whiff of wet puppy dog smell still does wonders.
I like!

I love the smell of a gardenia bush
and old time honeysuckles.

You take me back in time.

Love the image of the sprinkler's arc- don't see too many with water shortages and such, but lovely poems!
