The Scent of Home

As the last glimpse of home vanished

The scent came back to me

I could hear the daily chatter at home

Even if the waves clashed noisily on the shore of the sea

Now there is new beginning

A scent I don’t smell

Where I can start again

Even if I fell

My thoughts drift away

To the scent of my home

There is no boundary for my thoughts

They are free to roam

The fireplace roars with fire

The room is filled with light

But in here it is cold

The darkness of the night

The scent is so pleasant

Though the cold has left me so rigid

Just like the winter night at home

When I was a little kid

I smell also the scent of food

The freshly baked bread

Also I feel the soft green pillow

Still lying on my bed

My heart will always belong to the home

Where I spent all these years

Where the scent of home

Washed away all my fears
