Agreed! Love, in any form, improves our lives and the lives of all we come in contact with...

Exquisite, June.
Resonates deeply with me as one of my mother's favorite flowering vines/plants was the flowering jasmine. It is an annual in Michigan, and one that I search for every spring to place on our front porch. Its scent is heavenly.
And your poem is heavenly as well.
Thank you for sharing!

Good luck in the contest. I'm glad that I read this one.

How lovely, June. Your use of this Tanka/Japanese form is perfect for the short bursts of thought and meaning. I enjoyed it and wish you luck.
