A wonderful haiku for the challenge Xenia. Did the pups find any cold sausage, they seem to have a strong scent there?

I often wonder what they smell, when they are so intent. Was this just a fire, or did they roast marshmallows or cook other food? Only the Whippets will know for sure.

By the expression on their faces it looked as if some food had been cooked on this fire 😉🐾🐾

SMiLes.. mY friEnd Xenia
reMinds me afTer a lingering
Cold of the Virus kind as wHat Can
Happen it DamAged the Sensing
of Smell and resulting Rich
of Taste..
what was once
BeYoND iNiFiNiTE
in Taste is
now
reduced
to sweet and
sour and bitter and
salty and sure as ‘they’
Also nAMe for Delicious too..
Funny thing is.. i often forgot to
eat before i lost that Rich Taste at Home
as the Taste of Food is not all that Feeds..
Interestingly what might devastate some
folks is just a passing experience as sure
eventuAlly i WiLL be able to taste rich again..
MoRE When thE Sensory Nerves ReGeNeRaTE..
meanWhile
LiFe
is
sTiLL
More
Delicious
than ever
even
with
little to
no smell of what
is Beauty more with poor taste
wHeRe AsHeS Don’T SMeLL..:)
