Elle 122,852 Posted April 11, 2020 (the title of this poem is unknown) Jasmine in the air the burden of fame is real never felt so clear Because the sweetness and one noteness of honeysuckle and Jasmine on the first day of spring always stand in such a stark contrast to the layers of chaos and duality that fame has brought to my life Call me dramatic but it’s the first thing I think of when i see or smell something that is unmistakably itself- something that can’t be interpreted in any other way but one wayWhat a gift for a flower to invoke only one smell and one sense of romance. With no disdain or melancholy attached to its fragrance. And to be enjoyed for free and for that reason unable to be evaluated 5 Quote • 4.18.14 • 5.1.14 • 9.20.14 • 5.28.15 • 6.14.15 • 7.28.16 • 7.24.17 • 10.23.17 • 10.24.17 • 1.25.18 • 2.5.18 • 12.5.18 • 10.3.19 • 10.11.19 • 11.16.19 • 8.6.23 • 9.21.23 • 10.1.23 • 5.17.24 • 5.19.24 • SF • ATL • ATL • IND • ATL • CHI • LDN • NYC • NYC • DC • ATL • NYC • PDX • SAN • KS • CHI • AL • MD • AL • AL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maxthehitman 1,729 Posted April 11, 2020 I like this poem Flowers give their scent so freely to anyone who wishes to smell them, never asking for anything in return. A pure gift. The purest sense of love ever given, never asking for anything in return. When was the last time you gave something, never asking for anything in return ? Flowers. Smell them often. 2 Quote - Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
