Cherry tree spirits

So I went walking past the cherry tree and stopped because I felt something grab my attention. I looked at cherry to see small beings clamouring about and then watched as one around a foot tall strode up to me questioningly. It had the look of a small boy almost...but asked me without using a mouth if I could see him. Yes I can see you I said...I'm just watching and nice to meet you. I don't want to interfere with your work..so nice meeting you I said..and I walked on. I looked back to see him still watching me before he turned back and melted into the tree..first as a shapeless light and then vanishing. The cherry was just in pre-blossom state and had a rosiness to it's tips and was positively purring (?). Purring trees...LOL fancy that. I had to stomp my feet, hard, to ground myself more and carry on with my walk-jog. It was one of those very trancey days for me. I guess the earbuds with Prokofiev blaring in my ears didn't help my mindfulness. *grin* Must do more walks without accompaning mp3 player to hear the wind and trees talk more.
