tree-hug on december 21

A magical first day of winter tree-hug this morning.

My imagination was captured by this mysterious rune-like tree-letter.

The deeply textured bark adorned with mosses and lichen and a soft snow flourish.

An arched tree-window opened to a serene winter-world.

While a happy tree-couple danced in celebration of the new cycle of light.  Solstice blessings.  Peace
