Laughing purple lilacs rain wonders through a thirsty soul – by poet Lavender lilacs, tranquil and prayerful Fill up the heart with a sense of compassion Lightly whispering in the morning breeze Gentling the eyes with breaths of pure love Serenity flows warm through the tender petals Melting away all worry, pain or depression With holy hints of soft color - happiness sighing To the heavens where my heart is admiring Gracious and glorious blossoms of lilacs Penetrating the soul with heavy boughs Flowers so cheerful, they bring laughter to the Silence and contentment to the forlorn Purple lilacs so alive they dance in the hues Of a buttery yellow sun who delights in shining Down through halos that surround everyone With a glow of purity only found on angel’s arms As they bless the ground where Lilacs bloom in the shadows of a dream So beautiful it sings the sweetest melody A chorus of hope, faith and love Sent down on these green leaves Who murmur of God’s great peace Given to hearts who listen to the senses As they reflect on the lilac’s brilliant semblance Flower or Flowers - Imagism Form - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Constance La France March 11, 2021

I can see where the lavender lilacs would bring you peace, Regina. What more could we want than "A chorus of hope, faith and love"? Congratulations on your big win! Hugs, Carolyn

As lovely as a lilac flower my friend! I love lilacs. It looks as though my lilac isn't going to have blooms this year - so sad. All the best for the contest! Fragrant blessings of grace to you!
