Fragrant self

Oh now, a gentle awaking, 

The senses returning;

The new spring within quivering,

In the running river restoring.


Sweet roses, sweet dreams,

Screening my skin, my aura;

Self indulging, cosseted, as it seems,

By an orgy of scents, festive floral;

Jasmine, feminine, yet now hide

A yerning for the eternal 

Goddess inside
