ASSAULTED.



I lost my sense of direction
As the aroma wafted through the air,
My olfactory nerves now alert;
Drawn to it,
Hypnotized by it,
My taste buds on an overdrive
Salivating and drooling…
Just round the corner
Is the neighborhood bakery…
Fresh baked bread
So soft that it melts
Spicy bun with a dash of pepper
Sweet and salt biscuits
Pastries, cakes n mousse
Tempting the passers-by
Like a snake in trance
I enter the world of
Delicious delicacies
Treated to wonderful
Sights and smell
I can’t decide on what to eat!!!

    Nothing like the smell of a bakery's goods.

    I may be one of the few people who never liked the smell of a bakery, though I do like many bakery products.

    Oh the power of smell, nothing beats the smell of fresh baking bread. You have written such a great description that I swear I can smell it baking right now. I do not think I could ever live around the corner from a bakery.

    Happy Theme Thursday, thanks for playing this week.

    God bless.
