Tree Signs

Many of the Trees that were the variety with a light blue bow on them were given the freedom to put their names in their properties for all to know them as they really are made to exist.  This was the tree sign.  If you really wanted a real tree sign, you did not shave it at all and you did not trim it ever.  You never pulled out a single cobweb of the spiderwebs that decorated its beautiful aura and you never dyed it with any substance save perhaps the substance that you used to make your tree spin in your years gone by.  That substance made your sign look very mystical and it was a rare sight though not essential but very inspiring to some of the trees who liked to use Tree spinners to make themselves happy and thoughtful.  Tree spinners were something you really did not start using until you were much older in your tree years.  But that said there were also Tree Lifters which would pump the tree up an inch or two off the ground once in a while.  They smelled good and they looked great when the Tree bought them to share with other trees too.  It was always good to lift your tree or spin it.   Sadly some trees liked to get a substance that was really a tree worm infuser.  It was ugly and they thought they were as happy as the ones who were spinning their trees.  The tree worm infuser smelled really bad but was easy to come by and its dosage was quickly spent.  Tree worm infusers soon gave a bad name to the tree lifters and the tree spinners.  But back to the tree signs.  If your tree got older, the sign might turn white and gold.  It was always a blessing to have a white and gold tree sign.  Sadly due to the attitudes in the ages, many trees were afraid to get a sign of such quality and loving display.  It was just a terrible shame because they thought that if they had such a sign on their tree, noone would visit them anymore and that it was really not pretty at all.  But fortunately many of the trees, especially and almost exclusively all of the ones who smiled at the Power Tree did in fact let their signs become white and gold in life.  It was nice and noone forgot their names.
