a scent of coffee validates that hour very true i love that smell--naaaaaaa fragrance is better yeh---if im not mistaken theres a 'scent' by that name a lovely poem Sandra surely --10++anjali thanks

This poem presents an interesting question... Why drink coffee....when we have its scent? 'The scent of coffee validates'......poignantly saying so much! Excellent.

Each line unfolds the Sandra in them, Each word sparkles like a glowing gem. Imagery speaks softly of her knitting craft, How finely the Nature in her poem grafts. With sweet emotions, the words' guitar she plays, Melodius melodis her rainbow being relays. Sandra, I fumble for words, each image is very finely chiseled. Wow! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

a few are words are sufficient to share the emotions between friends but not to praise a noble poetess like you Madam...enjoyed reading..God Bless You

You have it all, Sandra..Wow, this is powerful..flow of words are just so gentle, i love every line, the whole piece, the author.. I am glad i''ve found this. Marvelous is the right word.. Love, meggie

I love the line 'Trees are no more than dark designs on grass'. Creates wonderful images in my mind. Thanks.

Here lies the mysterious power of poetry—to restore in words, and thus reconstruct, the taste of moments that “may not come again” in reality. Vanishing scents, whispers, and tunes are all brought back in a way that reinstates their immortal presence both in time and in the soul.

Caught it, I think, Amen. Bill Grace

Although I've know such timeless and magical moments, immortalized snippets captured in pale light and shade (Things move unseen, but rather felt therein) , I offer my profound appreciation and respect for your unparalleled black opal of poetic brilliance. I marvel at that which you've penned, and the hushed breaths that I can only find in fleeting memories and dreams - never at the union of my own pen and paper. I thank you for the most precious words that I could never see to find, save but deep within the intimacy of heart plucked cords, which even then evade my grasp. I've used the words 'magical', 'precious' and 'brilliance' already - A hundred times over would be an injustice and understatement! Thank You Sandra! ! !

This poem got my memories back at the wake of my grandma, she was loving and caring. The short time I spent with her was filled with memorable moments, she taught me about respect, honesty and other good virtues. Life can go anytime for it is too short to be with love ones and good friends who made our life on earth meaningful. This poem so captivating and helpful to make the most in life while there is time! . Little sad but an inspiration for me. Highest marks Sandra.

Something going on in this poem, not blatently obvious...could it be you fear for the departure of your friend? The descriptive words creating the lines, leave a between-the-lines meaning. This is way GOOD, Sandra! Moonlight, windowpanes, all great. The shadows tantalize. Read this one, people! ! ! xxElysabeth

Captivating, touching and a slight bit of sadness, I love the title. Your descriptiveness is remarkable Sandra.--Melvina--
