Out my front window

I can see

My Ash tree has survived another year

In midst of this pandemic my

Two front trees are fighting

An Ash Tree blight that

Have taken out many of the trees

In my neighborhood

It gives great shade in the summer

And the colors are amazing

That they share in the fall

Our trees are numbered

With a metal disc hammered

Into it’s trunk

And it’s a matter of time

Before the disease

Takes it out…

I’m hoping, like me

It will survive the Ash disease

And me and mine this pandemic
