I Love Lilac Time
Here's a vase of lilacs cut from the tree in our garden. I love the shape of the blossoms, and their beautiful fragrance.When I was warden of an OAP scheme, years ago, there was a gorgeous lilac tree in the garden. I cut some blooms to place in a jug on the table in the entrance.
I was immediately told off by the residents- "This will bring bad luck, there will be a death in the house, remove them this minute"
I politely pointed out that I had never heard of this superstition "Didn't your Granny tell you?"
"Nope, she was a Christian and didn't believe such stuff. She used to have them in the house. And why did Vera Lynn sing 'We'll gather lilacs' if you weren't supposed to?"
They couldn't answer that one, but I didn't want a battle, so I quietly took the vase upstairs and enjoyed the blooms in my own flat where they couldn't see!
Having researched it, I discover this anti-lilac thing is quite widespread, but I shall continue to resolutely ignore it, and appreciate the glory and the perfume of these flowers.
