I've put an entry in and this time I've tried writing a wee bit of fantasy, as my friend Debs is always trying to get me to have a go at it. The piece is based on rowan trees, as they were thought to have magical powers, and they have actually been used in water-divining.

I've always loved them as a tree, and the place I wrote the haiban about has some lovely ones, so I got to thinking about some ancient wooded world, where maybe they were sacred.
