As the tree in front of our house came down, bit by thundering bit, I kept thinking there must be some sort of splendid metaphor that I could find in it. I don't know. The way 2020 has been dismantling our life? Maybe. We're left with a view that is even more different than I could have imagined, so perhaps that is it.
When the huge piece of trunk hit the ground the whole house shuddered.
It is strange how something you never really noticed makes such a big hole when it’s gone.
I didn't think it would be as startling given that there's been no foliage for a year or two….the view from our house is SO different!
wow
