“Would like to thank Jewel or as some may know her Piper Ellie for inviting me to host here at Cheryl’s\u00a0fun corral. \u00a0Today’s posts will be covered in Lilacs. I wish there were a way to add a scent to my blog. Lilacs have such a beautiful smell to them not to mention the spectacular color and romantic feel.” <\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

“With all that said I would like to invite all poets to be inspired and share a little romance this Wednesday.\u00a0 All things lilac is welcomed but anything beautiful and inspiring will help make this a beautiful post.” ~Cece

  • Purple lilacs symbolize love \u2013 first love actually.<\/strong><\/font><\/li>\n
  • The ancient Greeks have a mythology thing about lilac symbolism.\u00a0 A\u201d god of the forest\u201d named Pan ran across a beautiful nymph named Syringa while wandering in the woods one day.\u00a0 He thought she was \u201chot\u201d and tried to chase her down, I guess to get her number or something.\u00a0 This freaked her out, and she ran (who\u2019d blame her<\/em>) . Sadly she was so<\/em> freaked out that she turned into \u201can aroma bush of lilac\u201d (is this not a little unbelievable?).\u00a0 Pan was bummed.\u00a0 He was also, apparently, a wood-god pretty close to his emotions, so he started crying and ran around doing good forever-after which somehow caused the word\u201d Syringa\u201d to become the Latin word for lilac.\u00a0 Whew!<\/em> Now you know.<\/strong><\/font><\/li>\n
