The Magnolia Blooms

A grey day in the Kingdom of Fife, misty over the Forth and REO is on the coastal path somewhere on an over-night hike - at least the rain is holding off for the meantime.

Our garden was so overgrown when we moved in here we had to lose a lot of trees - we planted a magnolia more in hope than expectation, but year on year it's produced more flowers - may try and get a sunnier pic over the next few days.

In my blood flows sleep
And the dark heavy rain
The magnolia blooms so sweet
Only torturing me

To the stars, my love
To the sea
To the wheels, my love
'Til they roll all over me

Mark Lanegan, the Gravedigger's Song
