The Dance of the Willow and Hawthorne

Once leaves have fallen, trees seem to dance in the wind, lightly touching each other as they twirl and swirl together in glorious harmony. I was inspired by the beautiful movements of a Hawthorne and a Weeping Willow that we had in the yard at our previous house. The Hawthorne is on the left, the Willow is on the right.

When you go for a walk next time, stop and watch the trees (in a safe spot) as they dance to Nature's music and whatever is on your playlist. It's a good way to be in the present moment without distractions!
