Lilac tastes of spring
Lilac tastes of spring
Flags twirl to the beat of the drumline
Withering too quickly for the bouquet
Welcoming spring to the valley of the Genesee
Hanging heavy outside our bridal bedroom
Worry about the bloom
And its link to the fate of our marriage
Memories linger on tongue and heart

Beautiful but bittersweet. Thanks for sharing this gem today.
Stunning imagery! The line “Withering too quickly for the bouquet” really captures the heartbreak here. Beautifully done.
