"trees of light"

[helen99]

I just got the daily search activity report for the website, and someone was searching for "trees of light". Please, who are you? Talk to me! What was it you were looking for? I wish I did have a page about "trees of light". Maybe I will...

Edit - Ah it's a Tolkien reference (Telpirion and Laurelin, slain by Melkor in the First Age).. Been a while since I read that - I'd forgotten. No wonder. People are always looking for Tolkien things on the website for some reason.

Still, what a neat concept just by itself, without any references...

"Trees of Light" ...

The Star Trees...

Part tree, part Starlight

Reaching from the blackwaters deep underground

branching out into the night sky,

a silver glow emanating from the transluscent bark...

I like #3 better. The visual in my head is much more of bluish than purplish.

Agree - I was actually going to discard #2, but my perception of it somehow improved with time (I'm not sure why), so included it at the last minute. I'll be deleting the previous post soon - wanted to show you the results, but don't want to proliferate my tampering on the net.
