Lilac

The lilacs are in bloom right now 
Deep purple, mauve, and white 
Fragrances so heavenly
Even through the night
But in the cluster one stands out
Different from the rest
She's a lilac there's no doubt
But grander I attest

She's like no other flower
More beautiful, more wise 
More magnificent than the Alps
At least to my brown eyes
She's all three colors wrapped in one
She's something to behold
The other lilacs are all the same
But her colors are made from gold
