Position:Home>Poetry> A Repeat Submission. Any comments?Question:The Smell Of Cigar Where has life taken you, And was it quite far? Were you able to grasp Your unreachable star? What were your passions, your yearnings; Did you quench your youthful burnings, Drink deeply of life; Perhaps light a cigar? Now forever captured In some old adventurer’s story, That no longer stirs the soul; No star beckoning to lofty goals, I am reduced to simple musings, As you are held timeless in a jar, Of stale memories and mementos, And the faint smell of cigars.
