The Scent of Lilacs
The Whirligig # 354 Prompt words in red. photo: pixhere The world may seem disheveled , crowds in a hot tempered funk . Yet, that is no reason to sulk , or spend your days in cool beer and burning whiskey. A straw in your mouth , the last bit of ice rattle s around in the bottom of the glass of two too many Ruby Tuesdays*. I raise my head from my hands, and peer through the grimy window. Look! The purple lilacs are in bloom! I think I may sink into them and drown in their scent. ©2022 Lisa Smith Nelson.

Searching for ones that are led me to one called a Ruby Tuesday. For obvious reasons, I had to use it! 🤣 https://imbibemagazine.com/recipe/ruby-tuesday-recipe/
