Eau de Gentiane Blanche Hermès 2009

An orange grove
transferred
to a mountain meadow.

The full-bodied scent
of the ripe tree stock,
blossoms and foliage
a warm breeze.

Dazzling daylight in the
sky.
The mountain ridge in view
of radiant clarity.

The grass in the grove is freshly mown,
the surrounding pasture
untouched by man.

Gently carried
by a refreshing gust
bitter green.

A mountain stream gurgles,
lifting the spirits.
