Day-22 NAPOWRIMO-2021
Prompt: Write a poem of a specific object as a symbol of a particular time, era or place.
Memories have a funny way to show up
In different forms, shapes and colors
I hold a few close to my heart
The vintage bottle is one of them
It carries the essence of an old world
Which had a bohemian charm.
A curious childhood found it interesting
To see what was forbidden
Packed in this intricate shape
As adolescence took wings
The tongue tasted the first sip
What a memory it was!
To swallow what that bottle contained
And feel freedom passing through the veins.
I still remember fondly, the benevolent soul
Who gifted me this beautiful bottle decades ago
He must be smiling from the other world
Seeing the bottle taking a poetic form.
