Arranging a bowl of flowersin the morning
can give a sense of quiet
in a crowded day ~
like writing a poem
or saying a prayer

This is the view outside my kitchen window ...
The Lilac are in full bloom & our 20 year old Lilac bush never disappoints.The Yellow Finch are frequent visitors to the garden & I am in awe of their beauty.
After a huge thunderstorm last night, the clusters are hanging heavily.
The aroma the moment I open the kitchen door is breathtaking...
I couldn't resist clipping off a few large clusters to bring indoors a few days ago, & the entire house is perfumed with their unmistakable scent...
Aromatic, romantic, beautiful...

I've just read on Monica's blog you've lost your lovely dog Ernie, I'm so sorry, I know how it feels missing a real friend ...
Lovely wishes,

I just LOVE lilac! Aren't they beautiful. they smell so amazing! I hate that they bloom once a year and for so short time!

Wow, the view from your kitchen window is stunning...lucky you! And I can practically smell the water-kissed blooms.
That yellow finch is beautiful! And a lovely quotation as well :-)
Dear Deb,
I have so very much enjoyed catching up with your posts this evening.
This one is amazing. I can almost smell the lilacs...the Gold Finch is charming .....
All of your textures on the photographs are so pretty. I think the linen look is my favorite.
Hope you are having a delightful summer. Already the heat and humidity are making me wilt.
