a new s-weed
for the new year
- a small thing
long due
While the cottonwoods were still there
I hardly noticed them
just happened to catch their image
almost a year before
the Next Block was incorporated
in the Domain - they were gone by then.
Though with the mother tree gone
this summer the root system
produced plenty of saplings
which just never
fit into the schedule.
The new growth of July
was mangled by street sweeping in August
and then later, in September,
meticulously cut down.
Still: it was easy to find a twig
under the snow today.
