We were camping in a steep deep valley, heavily wooded with a huge rock creek below. The valley ran east to west. Dawn broke. When the Sun rose high enough to penetrate the valley and as we breakfasted, the tree beside us lit up in glorious golden detail. It received this kiss of light and love and was thrilled and trembling in the embrace. The beauty in the moment was peaking and we all felt privileged to witness this intimate caress.
