a spring day, after
a gentle rain,
the shuddered sigh
of a young girl’s
first passionate kiss,
sweet orange blossom
caressed by the sun,
and creamy goodness
of vanilla ice-cream
on a summer afternoon.

I love that you chose taste but I would have loved to see a different title.
Still, your images are crisp and clean and so sweetly done -
This poem tastes like an orange creme cicle.
It's creamy, tangy and sweet. The right amount of heat to make it gradually melt upon your warm tongue.
YUM.
I absolutely love this poem, and I think you've inspired me
.
Thank you for that,
Love,
