Alphabet Tree
Alphabet Tree to Lift Your Spirits Are trees talking to you? In this season of Christmas Trees, Hanukah Menorahs and Kwanza treats, I came across what I would call an Alphabet Tree in my doctor’s office. Taking up a full wall, this tree had “branching” words for different letters of the alphabet. Trees can be strong, protective, alive, beautiful and nurturing. We all have our own trees inside of us.
