Scent Of A Lady

Last night I awoke, Everything was quiet, And peaceful. I sat up in bed, And gazed at the clock, On the nightstand. my wife was lost in her dreams, Peacefully by my side. All of a sudden, The room was filled with a delicate scent, And it seemed to permeate the entire room. The scent was everywhere, I turned on the light, So I could better see her picture, On the night stand. She smiled from the confines of the frame, A painless smile, A smile full of health and vigor. my wife stirred and woke up, She sat up in bed and said, 'Is that Taboo I smell? ' Then she turned to me and saw my tears, And she said, 'She waS here again wasn't she? ' All I could do was nod.
