Sweet Magnolia (And The Traveling Salesman)
Lyrics: Dan Fogelberg
Two hearts throwing off sparks
Young and in love with our freedom
Moonlight, the soft southern nights
We were both ripe to fall
Well I was out on my own
Playing for all who would listen
And you were as free as a bird
Flying from nest to nest
But somewhere our eyes met
And our hands reached out
And we felt a kindred spirit
And as our faces touched
I could feel the fire
And needed so to just be near it
Oh lord, those moments we soared
Borne on the wings of our passion
It seemed then like they'd never end
But times like that always must '
Cause then one day I flew far away from you
I never knew how I'd regret it
My sweet Magnolia belle you know I've loved you well
Even if I never said it
Magnolia, now I see that freedom isn't free
And love's the only true redeemer
And when this journey's through
I'll be coming back for you
If you'll have this foolish dreamer
I spend a night now and then passing through town on my travels
But someday I'm gonna come back to stay
Magnolia, I'm coming home

Beautiful magnolia blossom, Junie. I have a young magnolia and occasionally get a bloom.
I hope you and yours have a wonderful weekend!! :)
That is an exquisite capture. I did a bunch of magnolias against the blue sky last summer (they weren't good blooms this year), and I think I like yours better than any of mine. Beautiful.
Lovely pairing of your beautiful photo with this marvelous song ;--)
Hugs and blessings,
Nice contrast of the magnolia against the blue sky. :)
Happy skywatching!
Lovely! :)
Hi Junie, I love the new header and I also love Magnolia Trees! I once hauled one from New Orleans all the way to Kentucky in an MGB! Great song and video, too.
This is beautiful. It almost looks artificial.
So very pretty and the song is perfect!
Jeri,
Thanks!
I like the way this one turned out!:)
Happy you enjoyed the Dan Fogelberg song too! :)
Junie
Just beautiful Junie....Happy weekend to you and Charlie...Hugs, Joy
Thanks Joy!

BTW-Just read your email! I love hearing about those 'Grands' of yours! :)
Hugs))

Thanks! :) Glad you like it-but it IS real! This was taken last summer.

Hi Judy,
I've always loved the Magnolia blooms too! My husband didn't like the trees a lot but finally agreed to plant one!( LOL- all southern ladies need a Magnolia tree in their yards!)
Happy you like Dan's music too. I thought it went well with the post of the Magnolia!
Hugs))
Junie
Sally,

So happy you liked my Magnolia bloom.
Junie
Thanks, ALL, for your visits. I'll visit you soon.
