Late Friday Afternoon at Brooklyn College: Lilacs, Lilacs, Lilacs at the Lily Pond
This afternoon before teaching our creative writing class on the Brooklyn College, we sat at the almost-hidden lily pond.
The smell of lilacs pervaded the air.
When the wind came up, there was a blizzard of lilacs.
Lilac flowers covered everything, including us on our bench.

We've lived in our house for seven springs now, and this is the best year for our lilacs yet. I'm looking at our bushes right now, and they almost completely obscure our two cars in the driveway behind.
I guess it was all the rain and then the above-normal temps. We had a very early bloom to everything in NYC and it's lusher than I've seen it the previous three springs.
