Tears for a Tree

Tears for a Tree

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I have had a tree in my yard ever since I moved in close to thirty years ago now...it has grown out of control...probably waited longer than I should have to do this but I really love that tree and really will miss it when it's gone and really don't see anyway around doing this and so there are tears about it this morning so I thought I would write a poem about it...A tree job estimator is supposed to come out this afternoon so anticipating that putting this all into motion is making me very sad...and so Tears for a Tree poem was born...
