Lilacs, False Blue, White, Purple,
Colour of lilac,
Your great puffs of flowers
Are everywhere in this my New England...
Lilacs in dooryards
Holding quiet conversation with an early moon;
Lilacs watching a deserted house;...
Lilacs, wind-beaten, staggering under a lopsided shock of bloom,
You are everywhere.
What's o'clock (ed. 1926)
