Tree #3

Tree #3
I came around the corner tonight and stopped dead in my tracks. Remember the second tree, the one I planted after the first one was stolen? The one with the passionfruit vine and the grass planted with it? GONE. This time the culprit appears to have been the Council, who replaced it with an admittedly nice six-foot-high tree held up with sturdy stakes. I like Tree #3, but why couldn’t they have done that nine months ago and saved me two trees and many hours of wasted effort?

    but why? Sometimes I wonder what the council thinks they’re up to.
