Honeysuckle Vines
I woke up this morning with a sweet song by Dolly Parton in my head. "...Honeysuckle vines cling to the fence along the way, its fragrance makes the summer wind so sweet..." After 35 years I still remember all but one word in the lyrics to My Tennessee Mountain Home. I am not a big country music fan but I grew up with Dolly and this song is still one of my favorites. The beautiful picture she paints; the simple summer of years gone by. I am not sure why I woke up this morning with that verse running through my mind, maybe because like many I long for a simpler time and I long for the sweet summer winds. Beauty can be found anywhere if we look for it, even in the dark days of winter. We may have to hum a little tune from a long time ago but it is there. I hope that all of you that know this song leave for work, school, or where ever are humming this tune and you have a beautiful day. If you don't know this song here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Va6-P-w69zE

I am a true romantic; I love old Victorian and dream in technicolor. I hunt treasures with passion; whether it is a collection of old postcards at an auction or a crystal hidden in the sand.
