Totally undeserved lilacs

May 15th, 2005 · No Comments

Lilacs: I’m home again–and outdoors there are lilacs! I didn’t miss seeing them this year after all!

When we left home, on April 29, the lilacs in front of my house were covered with buds–blue, pink, lavender, mauve, and, well, just plain lilac-colored.

I was sure our departure meant I’d miss all their flowers–last year, and I checked this, I blogged lilacs April 15.

But today, all Cambridge is still covered with lilacs, and rich with their perfume.
It’s like getting a wonderful present I never expected and didn’t deserve.
