I sprayed some
perfume today
and I watched it swirl
and dance joyfully
in the air embracing
the lovely feeling of
being set free from
a pretty glass jar
and I watched it go
outside to where
nature lives where it
swirled over a garden
fence to sit in a tree
with a little robin
where they remained
silent knowing no words
needed to be spoken
Then the sweet perfume
flew up high in sky
sprinkling glitter everywhere
awakening pass summer
flowers from autumns
beauty sleep
giving them an extra few days
or maybe weeks
to bloom prettily on earth
I watched the perfume
float to the sun
to rest with it till spring
and as I look at the little jar
of sweet perfume
I smile too
at how extraordinary
and fun imagination can be
