Lavish

The smell permeates the room first.
Broken, in lavish love, hope attached.
To not receive the punishing kick,
To not be turned away, to not be denied.
The men don't understand, but he does.
There is only gentleness in the words.
In memory of her, how each should be.
Treated with dignity, respect, as the scent
Pours out to the whole room, a sign.
How love poured out touches all.
A powerful lesson to give life.
