Step Seven of Gary Ragnarsson's Frosted Primrose Challenge.
Introduction
This is step seven of Gary Ragnarsson's Frosted Primrose Challenge. In this part, I publish a story, factual, fictional, poetic, or otherwise, featuring evergreen trees as a central theme.
The music is "Evergreen" by Richy Mitch & The Coal Miners.

I used this Wikipedia entry to find the names, so I think this qualifies as another piece of Plagiaristic Poetry.

The Ritual of Winter Challenge Winners
Welcome to the Winners Announcement for The Ritual of Winter challenge. This prompt focused on winter rituals and the meaning that settles into them over time. The top pieces stay grounded in ordinary acts and repeated routines, letting winter shape the work through pace, attention, and restraint.

Love the creativeness with this one- a challenge within a challenge! Informative as well as entertaining. βKauri The Maori Name Of Agathis Australisβ is my favourite line, as Iβm from New Zealand!
You really studied up on the Evergreens!! Great job.
Whoaaa, this blew my mind! Excellent work!
Nicely done, Mike. Though what would I know? I'm kinda green at this.
