Analysis of Fragrance in the wind



FRAGRANCE IN THE WIND
=======================

Think about that something left behind

Honour'd, beloved; and she was kind

Played the part of mother to kiss me, was kind

As vigorous as mind, and yet it seems to bind

Life scarce but can cast a fragrance in the wind!
