Israel


I catch a wisp of a distant summer scent

In the night sky

A smell that reminds me of Israel

Where I walked crushing herbs under my feet

Thyme, rosemary, sage


Brushing against cypress trees

And the heavenly smell of orange blossom

I am there once more

Asleep under the stars

A tiny figure on the sand
