Kiss of death!

This beasty lives in the valley on the north flank of bodran, i think its an Ash i'll pay it a visit now that there are leaves to confirm it........The ash was considered by the druids to be one of their 5 sacred trees , it connects with the 3 circles of existence and being known to the celts as "Abred" "Gwynedd"and "Ceugant", which translated is past, present and future....
I am tomorrows ancestor,
the future of yesterday,
and what i am in the here and now,
goes rippling out all ways ,
goes rippling out always..

As for the witch hugging him, I'm afraid i'll be chopping her of at the feet. and bringing her home.

I'm really enjoying this blog - wonderful photos and fascinating text. Today's Celtic phrases were really interesting. Looking forwards to the next. (Oops - no pressure!)

Jo, I think that seeing the trees that you have posted may have a role in getting me to start being a visual artist again, no matter how little time may be available.
Many thanks for inspiration.
