Lilacs

Freshly picked branches
of lilac blooms decorate
the coffee table
their delightful fragrance
drifts through the air
and with tenderness
make smiles appear
co-joined now
this fragrance with air denotes
a sweet love affair

I love lilacs. The are the perfect blend of green and purple. One of the things I missed from our move last year was my lilac bush. My husband just planted one in my front yard last week.

I love lilacs too! I use to have them around my cabin. So wonderful!

Lilac is one of my favorite scents. I miss it living in this desert.

Sweet and gentle......very endearing indeed.


dear Pauline (and I see dear Katie over here too)
I turned off my commets feature - cannot deal with the "responsibility" at this point...

Thank you for the kindness and support you have showed me.

Take good care for now.
Big hug, until better times

You've picked the colours out beautifully - what lovely flowers they are, aren't they! The colour and scent...

They are my eldest daughter's favourite flower... I used to stop by the roadside so she could pick a spike (is that the word?) to take home! :-)

These lilacs were a delight for all apparently the fragrance is so strong it was capable of traveling across the minds of all of you. Great isn't it that we were able to share this fragrance together!
