In the Time of Lilacs
Springtime in Vienna


Vienna's awash in Lilacs
this time of the year,
lilacs in the shade,

lilacs in the sun,
looking up a church steeple,

scent of lilac
reaching the farthest corners

  4. One of my favourite flowers. I went to the botanical gardens in Warsaw with my daughter last Saturday and lilacs were in full bloom there as well. I love the colours (whites, pinks, violets) and the scent. We had a lovely afternoon.

  13. Dear Merisi, Thank you for the lovely photos of the lilacs to remind me that one of these days it will be sunny and warm enough and the lilacs will be in bloom once again here too!
