Beautiful Sunday. Summer and honeysuckle. In the heat of a Texas night it can be perfume for the soul. Here in Washington state, it is only in July and August that I really get the hint when I walk through the front gate where the honeysuckle and grapes have come together to form a natural arbor. I planted the honeysuckle directly under my son's second story bedroom window. I could imagine the warm summer night air heavy with the scent of honeysuckle floating into his room, hanging over his little head while he slept. There is a chickadee house hidden by the honeysuckle leaves and I envy them this time of year. I go out there at dusk, stick my nose right in the pollen ladened stamen, snort the perfume and my mouth can not help but form a smile.

The colors of the flower with the vase is awsome!
This is not only a tribute to the loveliness of flowers, but to a mother; who thoughtfully planted them to benefit her son's dreams.
What a mom.
Honeysuckle has to be one of my favorite all-time summer scents. Beautiful.
Love Love Love Honeysuckle scent... !!
