August 2021Flying Carpet

 In August The Flying Carpet
has sent you to the Land of Scent.

Use your eyes 

to conjure the aroma of

petrichor…
the tenuous essence 

that occurs after rainfall

Marvelous moment of desert rain

Smell of approaching fall 

in New Mexico
Chili roasting…

Bundles of sage

A museum of smell!!!
The history of fragrance in Venice
at Mocenigo Palace

Safflower fields in rural France

Whiff of the exotic

Miasma of Evening in  Paris

Burning leaves
at the papermaker's shrine

…and your olfactory memories?
