Fragrance poetry inspired by Jubilation XXV from Amouage.

I’ve been caught by troubles
like a sheep in Rock Rose,
Cultivating my life in a land
Of blackberries and brown thorns.
One day, we glimpsed our Savior.
But, He was buried just as soon,
Anointed with myrrh and aloes.
Wrapped in a sobering white shroud.
This was to be the year of Jubilee,
When debts were forgiven – slaves set free.
He would soothe and sweeten my bitter life
Like oranges and honey.
But. . .our debts required a sacrifice – His sacrifice.
And as His righteousness rose to Heaven
Like the smoke of a Holy incense,
So, too, from the grave He would rise.

This is a new depth in your fragrance experience, I stand in awe of a moving ode to the Good Shepherd (for me), and the sacrifices He made to bring me into the fold.
You write movingly about Jubilation Deep work Jay.

Thanks ABVR. It seemed like a naturally progression of thought starting with the word “Jubilee,” an original Jewish festival of celebration

I fell deeply in love with the word Jubilee way back in my twenties and to this date moved by the celebratory feelings and meanings entailed in the name. Looking forward to another Jubilee yo mark your writing.
