I write what I feel…

Smoke

Smoke

.

Heat shimmers

Air expands

And smoke drifts

Lazily twists and twirls

Gracefully whirls and curls

Ever upwards

Slowly gently dissipating

Dissolving in air

But still there

Smelled but unseen

As in a dream –

Doors slam

Dogs bark

Have you started the braai

They cry

    Ha. I cooked out last week. I love the smell of the grill. I am pretty sure the smoke is alive because no matter where I move around the grill, it follows me.
