Oh, how I love lilacs.
the color, the fragrance,
the memories
such sweet memories
memories of
Lilac Inn
a place of childhood dreams
and now new memories
memories of my big boys
bringing their mama lilacs for mother's day.

ReplyDeleteI miss my Lilacs. Years ago, I had a house where there was a bush right outside my window. When it would bloom, I could open the window and the sent would fill the house. Thanks for taking me back there.
ReplyDeleteOh my yes indeed...you can't help but LOVE them..they are so fragrant and lovely to LOOK at too. I don't know when you have time to be a photographer and do all the other things you do.
ReplyDeleteBut you do both things WELL my friend.

You put it well. I don't think any other flower or fragrance holds more memories for me than lilacs.

ReplyDeleteOhhhh your lilacs are just gorgeous!!

Loving those lilacs:) My favorite flower...I love 'em for all the reasons you named, too {except the Lilac Inn; sounds like a beautiful place}!
ReplyDeleteOh ours aren't quite ready yet, but I can't wait until they are... almost time! I have that same champagne bucket, now it's just begging for lilacs! Can't wait for the reveal... xoxo
ReplyDeleteYour lilacs are beautiful. I love the way you do your shots. Your colors are always just incredible. Diane
ReplyDeleteLilacs generally don't do well in my part of Texas, but my mother would talk about playing under a giant lilac bush when she was a wee one. The look on her face when she would reminisce is a favorite memory of mine. Thank you for reminding me of it.

LOVE lilacs!!! All of my life favorite flower. I grew up with a block long row of solid lilacs and would pick arm fulls to bring home to my mom. I'm anxiously waiting for ours to pop open, it's been sooo cold here. Your photos are lovely, as always!

Beautiful Lilacs. How do you make your Lilacs bug (tiny bugs) free when you want to bring some indoors?
