Stump
May 20, 2019
While sitting on my porch I see a stump of what once was—
I remember how tall you once were
I remember the cool shade you cast’d
I remember the playground your surroundings supply’d for me
O, I am sorry stump—
As I grew taller, you became frail
As I became stronger, your leaves fell
As I reached maturity, you crash’d down
Why
