My Favourite Tree

Written by: Karena Osborne; Moon Bathing

Tonight I sat outside looking at my favourite tree.

I first truly noticed it in the winter. Its branches bare, yet it was beautiful. I don’t know why, maybe because I was taken aback by the simplicity of its beauty, but I snapped a photo.

Over the weeks, I’ve continued to come outside and watch my favourite tree. I have watched the buds form, and a squirrel make its nest (side note they are very strong, have amazing balance and work very fast). My favourite tree is a safe space for birds to retreat to after grabbing a snack from the bird feeder. My favourite tree has entered each new phase, each new story effortlessly. Oh, the stories this tree could tell.

Here’s a little piece of our story. I made a collage of my favourite tree, a living breathing piece of art.
