Don't You LOVE That Smell?

Not thinking

I grabed his hand

and squeezed it gently

in our shared excitement

The smell, unique in this world

one not duplicated except

sometimes in cans

phoney replication

I smiled at him

he winked at me and said

"Are you happy?"

"Of course I am" thinking,

who wouldn't be with that smell

that one of a kind smell

We went on our way

smug and shiney feeling

like everyone could tell

we had a new car
