Scent#Daily Prompt#Attempt 72
First attempt of Haiku with some old family pictures of my parents, sister, brother and me!
Old picture album
Oozing out scent from pages
Of old memories
As I opened an old album
A faint scent
Arose from its pictures
With turn of every page
It grew stronger and stronger
Scent of that garden
Where we played together
Scent of
Mom cooked food
Which we shared together
Scent of rain soaked ground
Where we used to walk
And sing song together
That aweful scent of your socks
That you used to tease us
Making us go mad with anger
And then
Ending the drama with
Uncontrollable laughter
Scent of childhood
Scent of kinship
Scent of growing together
Scent of memories
Rising from those clicks
Which we captured
And saved in pics!
May we lock more such scents
To watch years later
In pages of these albums
So that we could say
We lived a life full of
Scents of love and laughter
And our time together as a family
I wish we may…
Sights and sounds may be similar but every place has its own distinct smell. Nice post.
