Something in the Air Maybe
I don’t know what made me think
of you today ..
Maybe it was something about
the way those first few raindrops
made patterns on the pavement
as they fell ..
Or maybe, they just reminded me
of your tears ..
Which unlike the scent of wild figs
hung in the air for days
and sweetly so, the day we parted ..
And after all,
it has been almost three whole
seasons now ..
But hey, who’s counting
whatever the case might be, I sense
there is something in the air maybe ..

What was it Jack Nicholson said in As Good As It Gets? "You make me want to be a better person".....
One wouldn’t recall, nor could they be stirred if those memories hadn’t been stored, as you have so lovingly recited

When I click on a posting here on MPS there are many where I give up and don't get beyond the first few lines - never the case with your postings - - another gem of a write.

Something that scents the air often brings someone special to mind and so do your words dear Nev. - - - they abound with tender nostalgia and times that can never return --a sigh of a read my friend..............x
