THE AUTHOR: Thomas Moore (1779–1852) THE QUOTE: As down in the sunless retreats of the ocean   Sweet flowers are springing no mortal can see, So deep in my soul the still prayer of devotion,   Unheard by the world, rises silent to Thee. As still to the star of its worship, though clouded,   The needle points faithfully o’er the dim sea, So dark when I roam in this wintry world shrouded,   The hope of my spirit turns trembling to Thee. FROM: The Heart’s Prayer.

W. Tennant  What smells have the effect on you of making the world around you seem to change because you are so reminded of a past vivid memory?  What scents leave you a little sad or make you feel happy or warm your heart with past good feelings?
