TREE FRIENDS... SPA's TREE CHALLENGE...


 Once there was a tree.... 
and she loved a little boy. 
And everyday the boy would come 
and he would gather her leaves 
and make them into crowns
 and play king of the forest. 
He would climb up her trunk 
and swing from her branches

Fabulous art and text. I love the way the kids are hugging the tree, and I also love Shel Silverstein! Wonderful!

Oh wouaouh! That's great, dear Deann! I'd like to swap this one too, I love it! When I'm not feeling very well, I've always hugged a tree and I feel like I'm recharging with its energy. My little sister used to do the same and sometimes we did it together. I'm sure you can understand what this image means to me... What's more, it's so beautiful that I think I'm going to make a poster of it, with your permission of course (you'll have to sign it please :). I'm no longer taking part in the SPA challenge but I still love seeing your wonderful creations. A thousand hugs from my little corner of the world.
