Purple Lilac

The soft spring breeze brings a sweet scent of purple Lilac to me
Blooming where the birds chirp and sing, with butterflies to see
As I smell this fresh scent in the air, my mind is magically clear
The color purple highlights nature’s beauty, with green leaves near

Fresh blossoms bring a new beginning, with hello from spring’s voice
Wildlife happily plays in the yard, dancing around the bush of choice
This sweet scent with colorful memory embraces my mind to ever last
With Nature’s happy tunes playing on… until we meet again, and pass

"Fresh blossoms bring a new beginning, with hello from spring’s voice" - this sets the tone for Spring, and even though winter is just about us, I am SO ready for spring. Lilacs are my favorite scent, so this one is making me happy!
