I was thinking again today about the two old pine trees in "our" vacant lot, down by the mile wide river.
Tall and gnarley, they offered more protection from the wind than when they were younger and their song was different; deeper, more throaty, with perhaps a bit of melancohly.
Now they are gone.
Only a patch of grass marks where they once stood, tall and proud, as the branches swayed while the needles "sang" to us in the evening breeze.
Kind'a like people................................Ain't it?
Shalom y'all
