A Delectable Form of Defeat

To be overcome by
the fragrance of flowers is
a delectable form of defeat.
...Beverly Nichols

These large, creamy white Southern Magnolia flower blossoms have a sweet fragrance. It is an old tree right across the street. It might be a Magnolia Grandiflora, but not sure.
