Smell of color

sorenbarrett

Popcorn blooms

on green leaf clouds they fall

as snowflakes over a green felt grass

covering of earth's table where the pungent

fragrance of orange blossoms fills sultry air

of natures kitchen. Stomach filled

on sunbeams,

window

shades,

heavy

with

dreams

satisfaction,

close to visions.

      Thanks so much Cryptic for the review and comment. Smells although not as frequently relied on as the other senses have quite an impact on mood. Appreciate the words.

                This my friend, is a lovely shape. At first I saw a mushroom, or it could be a tree, but it looks like a fully bloomed mushroom or tree, which totally mirrors the content. Bravo on this, my friend! 🌹👏 Instant fave.

                    Good write SB. KP has lovely smell of colour of rotten maggots that I feed her with for dinner. lol. It's gross here at meal-times.

                    • sorenbarrett

                      Thank you so much Orchi those maggots contain a good deal of good protein. I think you are making her stronger.

                                Not only do I like the poem itself, but I also like the visual way it's presented.
                                The shape of a bouquet of flowers is a nice extra layer in this piece.
