Great poem. I can smell the lilacs. It reminds me of my childhood. My favourite tree was the lilac! ❤️

I love that you had a lilac tree growing up also Oma! Three generations of lilacs in our family 💜

Lovely poem! My grandmother had jasmine plants in her garden. The smell of jasmine brings me back to my childhood

I’ve come home from a trip away for the weekend and our lilac is now finished for the season. I basked in her beauty as much as I could this year, she is such a reminder to savour moments. Xx

I know, it's so fleeting! Ours is already starting to wilt, it always goes by faster than I expect it to!
