Tobacco

Steps into the room and catches a whiff
Of smoke ingrained in the wood

Memory sweeps her up and a warm lap
Waits over by the roaring fireplace
A favorite story to be told

Smoke puffs from the dragon’s mouth
As grandpa weaves tales of castles
And knights and deeds most courageous

Creak in the floor she turns from innocence
And leaves nothing but wreckage behind.
This here is probably my favorite poem that was submitted for my final project. So much in fact that I started a short story about it. It's not quite complete yet, but I will get it up here as soon as I have a finished rough draft at the least.
