The Yellow Tree®

[johncomic]

Not long after we moved to our new house, we discovered a special tree in our neighbourhood. In September it turned a bright, pure, complete and lovely yellow. I loved seeing it as I drove by.



It got to the point where I looked forward to every fall to go by The Yellow Tree® again.

Last fall, I went by in September and it was gone. It had been so thoroughly removed that the stump was dug up, the hole sodded over, and you would never suspect that there had ever been a tree there.

It makes me feel old when I outlive some of the things I love.

That's a beautiful tree and so sad that it was cut down.
