I sawed you down
but I must attend
an older friend
the sun

    Really sad, a little part of me wishes there was some way we could move but still able to keep this place – if only we had lots of pennies!

I had planned a missing tree for One Word Sunday, a huge tree from a set of two that got sick and was felled, but I never had a good set of the two together. Anyway, I love your quote.
