It's nice to look at a tree from a distance and say "Think I know that".
Perky branches head out, swoop down, then up (like a candelabra).
Even when they're 'standards' stuck in an awful 'flailed' hedge (not now, Bernard), they still look up.

Ash is a very strong, elastic wood so many legendary ash spears are waggled about in myths & stories.
Best ash story I've ever read is by @williamfiennes in "Why Willows Weep".

('don't have nightmares').
