Hiraeth
My teacup is old—the kind of dainty bone china that collects dust in the cabinets of grandmothers. Five small blue roses wrap around the cup, and a small, gold-painted handle curls and wisps as if penned with a calligrapher’s quill. The type of handle that forces you to hold your pinky finger out because there’s nowhere else to put it. It’s late spring, and the warm breeze nudges its soft lips across the lilacs and blows their sweetness over me as I sit in the garden. I welcome the favoured fragrance, covering me in a thin veil, distancing my mind from the present. If nostalgia had a smell, lilacs would be it.
