I can feel the calmness reading your poem, I get that same feeling sitting in my garden at dusk when all is quiet and when even the gulls have flown to their nest.

Even small scenes and natural occurrences of no great significance can leave a lot of impressions when the mind is calm and composed. The same scenes might not impress us or even seem repulsive if the mind is perturbed. So everything depends on our mental mood. Beautiful poem....! 10 on 10

And thats how memories remind us, just like a smoke of past revisit air..thick, thin and disappear...it may gone but cold or warm lingers!
