  10. I don't think that there is a sense of loss as long as the fragrance lingers. Sometimes we are able to keep things alive just as long as we want to. I like the idealistic thought and the passion in this. :)

    1. True, Archana! As long as the memories are alive in our hearts and we let the sparks speak to us, there is no such thing as loss. Thanks for appreciating. :)

  11. Hi Vaishali! :)
    You would be happy to know I have composed a poem on your say on ''Forget -Me -Not'' theme. Thank you so much for the sweet suggestion :)

    Hope you like :)

    2. Also, your poem is really romantic... like feelings of a lover written down on paper.

  13. A beautiful thought, Vaishali.. and a lovely message in it as well.

    Perhaps, a little too much punctuation...?

    sooner or later -
    scent lingers

    would get a tone of reading to it perhaps.. reading the first two lines in one go, and concluding with the emphatic third :)

    Nothing taken from the beauty of your thought though.. as MMT says, it is the scent that lingers :)

    1. Perhaps, yes! Got your point, Leo, and it makes sense. Thanks for the suggestion... does me good! I'm here to learn and it's always good to have seniors give constructive feedback. Thanks! :)
