Lullaby

The path ended when the mother found her lost child.  Wishing they never be separated again, the trees listened.  Embracing mother and child, they made them one.  Within the spring breeze rose the sounds of a lullaby.

This is just beautiful. An everlasting embrace, between mother and child, within the safety of a living tree... May the song go on!

Beautiful evocative words and what a photograph! The stuff of goosebumps ... at least, for Moms, everywhere.

What a wonderful notion. And you did well to see it because it really works with the image.

If you look at the tree closely, you will see the two together, singing softly!
