I truly hope your summer is going well and that all your dreams under the moon include sweet songs and gentle scents. Can’t get into the garden to stir up all the peace and happiness vibes? We know the garden isn’t just about floral smells, and we make good serotonin just from mucking about in the soil. Not quite like being there, here’s one from my perfume box: Dirt. Yes, it does have the smell of dirt, and that’s a big surprise.
Try adding some Hawthorn to your scent bottle - the smell of rotting flesh is adored by bees - we had a hawthorn in the back yard of our Vancouver house. When it was covered in white blooms, in May, it fairly pulsed with bees.
Now Weekly!
well, I for one have been a substack subscriber of yours for a long time and look foward to the weekly.
I love your Selfie, your poem and your spirit.
Carol, your comment on mine reminded me that I meant to comment on this! I wanted to say, I love the photos and I enjoyed this gentle read.
write it!
Thank you, Carol.
Carol, Sufia

So glad I'll be hearing from you regularly. Weekly has worked really well for me on seventysomething. It keeps me in touch with what I have to say.
btw...you look beautiful!!!
