Lilacs

I picked them along the driveway, and put them in an amber jar that holds the crooked branches without tipping.  There used to be a little path through the bushes, that the kids made.  Happy Mothers Day to all of you mothers, young and... not so young.

This reminds me how much I miss lilacs! Sigh.

Susan; the amber vase is stunning with the mauve lilacs!
Our lilacs are not yet in bloom. Fran

Lilacs are so nostalgic. I have so many memories of them. Their fragrance is pretty intense, but I bring them into the house anyway.
