This is the second poem I have published in collaboration with another artist. Hudson E Baldwin III is an organic farmer and sustainability consultant that has a craft in micro photography, focusing on flowers.
Lilac
Lilac blooms in slow anticipation with glory for only a moment yet plant her throughout your garden to tease my heart with sweet scent memory of your body pulled to mine.
Thank you for reading! Please leave a comment about what strikes you, speaks to you, or stirs in you while you read the poem or reflect on the photography. I look forward to whatever dialogue happens here, and within a week I will be following up with a Reflection post on how this poem emerged into being.

You’re a true professional. I’m feeling a little out of my depth. Don’t remember the last time that occurred. ;)
Am I biased because of a great fondness for the gorgeous variety in lilacs? I love scent memory - walking into a room and suddenly getting a whiff of something that sparks a time traveling, intense, memory that lasts to brief a time?
I truly enjoyed this poem. An honor to Lillian’s and life affirming.
