The Scent of Childhood


I've been time traveling this this afternoon. In crystal clear flashback and I was standing on the sloping hill leading down to the sea. The same road I would walk to school not far from Bergen where my parents used to live. It was the exact same perfume... mixed with the smell of green and newly cut grass. I wish I knew the name of the tree with those white flowers but I do know one thing; when the sweet perfume is in the air, it's springtime!

Aaah, life is beautiful!
