GUEST,betty Lyr Add: Legend of the Dogwood (20) RE: Lyr Add: Legend of the Dogwood 26 Mar 14


I remember this song also,i found a picture of this tail and i found something on line-( KIRK H. NEELY-MARCH 2011 ) TALE OF TWO TREES -The two beautiful flowering are a reminder of the passion of CHRIST during the season of Lent. Again the tradition was so distressing that,rather then cursing the redbud as only a symbol of betrayel,the CREATOR blessed the tree with heart shaped leaves that are in full display by good friday.The leaves are said to be a symbol of the loveing heart of GOD.   Even as the dogwood tree blooming usually coinside with good friday.So the red tree floweres near theides of march,the date lives in imfamy as the day of betrayal of Julius Ceaser by Brutus.The redbud tree presents betrayal not by Brutus but by Judas Iscariot. People of the Appalation Mouhtains have long refferd the redbud as the Judas Tree.   So two beautifull trees live to tell their stories.   Hope this helps some..♪♪♪
