AROMA PART II (a poem for my husband

This is the second poem in a 4-part series on the concept of AROMAS… Good things, bad things, Great Things.  

All of my life I fringed about

lost in the dark places

the lonely spaces

of dank and dire

Until you…

Hard to describe your breath

sweet and masculine

always sweet

like the very air in your body

was laced with sugar and metal

like your lungs were

uniquely designed

to turn my pollution

into purity.

I first noticed it

at our first kiss

as you held my face

you inhaled

all my doubt

and wanderings

and exhaled all over me

the sweetest

longings

for me

to give you my heart

forever.
