When I was younger, I noticed a small tree growing. I don't know why it was such a big deal to me but I watched it grow, and I'd talk to it... check on it when I came home from school... I was so excited to see it get taller and taller. Taller than me even. I'm not sure if you could call it a tree. It looked more like a tall green branch. But it had maple leaves on it and it was growing out of the ground.
Then one day the gardener mowed it down.
Life sucks.
