Lilac's At Home

Nothing so enchanting

as waking up each

summer morning

with the sweet smell

of lilac's  coming through

my open window,

what a way to start

my day.

Oh I do so agree. It has been my dream to have a hedge going down a long driveway of red, white and blue lilacs. I like the purple ones too of course and I used to have one in my yead that had dark purple blossoms trimmed in white. I do so love them, I have five bushes in my yard. This is a fine Summer time write. God Bless, JB

Wonderful! We used to have a lilac tree, then the neighbors claimed it was on their property and cut it down. BUMMER! Love, daver
