Coming upon blooming wisteria is to taste Spring and not look back. Then the first aspargus. Fava beans. Pea shoots. And soon, just imagine, peaches.
As delicate as they appear, wisteria are anything but shy of fragrance. A fragrance-force, for sure.
Later, reading Rilke and slipping into those purple passages. Perhaps, those scents will rub off -- into the imagination of the next poem written.
