Haiku




                                             bouquets of lilacs
                                             the last bunch fills
                                             a milk bottle

                                             twilight rain
                                             the scent of lilacs
                                             through the window
 
                                            dead heading lilacs
                                            the fragrance lingers
                                            in memory
