A Promise For Lilacs Poem by RIC BASTASA

A Promise For Lilacs



so where are the lilacs?

you promised me lilacs
i am far away

i will be satisfied with the pictures of
lilacs
in bloom

less the scent, less the reality of lilacs

i grab then the illusion of lilacs
a field of lilacs

a mountain of lilacs, a path of lilacs,

or just a single lilac,

or just another promise of lilacs

or look-alike of lilac

from you
