Eyewitness of nature’s loom <br />When lilacs with long <br />Locks of blooms <br />Illumine my kitchen counter <br />Before the vase <br />Gathers them… <br />Scenting, banqueting <br />Crafting and dining <br /> A living room <br /> <br />Their bright aroma <br />Shrieks out ascent of May <br />Accented by green leaves <br />Where birds nest - engulfed in perfume; <br />Sun, and color-woven <br />In lilacs’ purple costume <br />Springing through <br />The threaded tapestry <br />Of natures loom<br /><br />Duane Botzek<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/spring-lilacs/
