Hug a Tree

Another beautiful Saturday morning at the sports field and I felt this tree was being rather unappreciated. I gave it a hug and felt happy in it's energy! It's been there since long before I attended the same school and it's strong trunk holds the echos of a million children passing thru the fields.

The secrets it must have overheard, as young girls sat beneath it's branches on a sunny day. The couples it must have offered a shelter to on a wet and windy day! All of these memories were quivering inside it's bark.

It's rather bereft of leaves right now, but it's only March, I'll come back in a month or so and Let you see him in all his glory!
