Simply amazing. I love the way you have described this tree. The imagery in which you use is stunning and creates a exact copy of what this tree should look like in our head. Also like the description of "irresistible". I found it very enticing as if the tree was in front of me and I could reach forward and grab a piece of it and bite into it. Finally the last part of the poem uses some nice pride for a tree to think of herself as an orchard all of her own. All in all, very stunning and I was glued to this poem from the time I started reading it till I finished. Then I read it again. Great job and keep writing.

This was beautiful, Temps..it is hard to see the girl you were in this very, very mature write:) It is so nice to see how styles develop and people grow on here and you have.

almost as if she is an orchard
of her own.

I could almost smell the fragrance in the air. your wording was perfection and I enjoyed A fragile poem of beauty

Love the simple fragrance that is experienced here- permeate is such a powerful word and even by the one-worded title you paint such depth! I respect this brevity, sometimes I find it very difficult to convey my imagery and what I want the reader to sense in such limited lines. Well done. I enjoyed this deeply! Hope you have been doing well, what is the weather like over there for you? It is practically winter here, all ice and snow. Talk to you real soon God bless :)
