Night Blooming Jasmine
Intoxicating perfume
Arousing senses
Musky, sweet jasmine
Night blooms in the eigengrau
Perfumed betrayal
Centrum nocturnum
Under cover of darkness
Aromatic emissions
Prompted by the One Word Photo Challenge: Eigengrau
and CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI: Carpe Diem Time Machine #8: Perfume
I am a scientist by trade and artist by soul. My creative outlet used to be dancing but due to injuries and age, I must now find another path. I am hoping my writing, poetry and photography can be this new path.
Awards: While I am grateful and honored for the numerous nominations, I don’t have time to respond to them with the attention they deserve, so for the most part, I am an award free blog.

Thank you! I ended up having to use flash but I was able to “shop” in the dreamy quality I wanted.

Sorry, I imagine you thought the worst with that title due to your job. Not trying one-up you in bodily fluids department. You win that one hands down.
