Short-lived beauty
 |
Lilacs are my favorite flower. I'm not sure why except I love their clusters of small flowers, and the gentle lilacs and violets which make up their colors. There are white ones too, and they blend well with the purple shades.
They often grow in parks and as road-side shrubs, so it is tempting to pick them. But I never do. What if everyone started picking them? There would be nothing left to admire.
This is a repeat of a post I made a couple of years ago, which I titled: "Lilac Temptations".
