On the Scent of Pine

Cassie58

imagine 

if all the souls 

of our long departed

lit up the pine forest 

at night like fire flies 

in love 

 

chasing 

winking and blinking 

beckoning us to their party 

having a ball 

while we 

 

in wide eyed wonder 

in silence and gratitude 

watch in awe 

a taste of timeless 

of heaven’s potential

on the scent of 

lasting pine

    I love the scent of pine, what could be better to remember our loved ones than wandering through a memor forest full of it. This poem is so very touching, and beautiful.

          A wonderful poem about remembering our loved ones. How I wish I could be with them again. And I know they are with me all the time. But where I could see and feel their presence. 😉👍

            Maybe Fireflies are reflations of those who came before. Wonderful poem.

              Now wouldn't that be a thing ..
              I doubt we would be able to take our eyes away from such a sight .. the scent of pine is but one of mother natures gifts to our noses, isn't it ... Neville

              • Cassie58

                Thank you Neville for your nice review, my response better late than never. It would be a wonderful sight, I agree and the scent of pine would be heavenly.
