Cinquain for the Beech and the Katsura
Cut down
growing too bold
cracked brick lifted flagstone
trees conspire to swallow
my mother’s home until the last
today.

Nice. I’m trying cinquains too.
I love them.
Very well done, Ellen. You express so much so well in so few words. Take care!
Thanks, Nancy! It’s necessary (for me) to keep this one as spare as possible. Losing these trees is a HUGE shock for our family, but necessary. They were literally taking over the house.
