Paul is talking Change over at the Pub
An Inconvenience
A neighbor cut down
an old Black Walnut tree
it was inconvenient –
dropping walnuts in the fall
as walnut trees are wont to do
And then another cut down
a Red Maple
it was inconvenient –
shedding all those leaves in the fall
as maple trees are inclined to do
Yet one more is contemplating
three tall pines behind his house
they are inconvenient –
scattering pine cones in the fall
as pine trees must surely do
Now the birds and squirrels
search out another perch
it is inconvenient –
finding seeds and nuts elsewhere
I think that I will plant a tree

I feel sad when I see trees being cut down and all is left is just a stump ~ Go and plant a tree ~

We don’t like to be inconvenienced. That is why we are not more concerned about our environment!

I can imagine such things happening too often. It is good to plant trees.

Sounds like you need to plant a few (trees). Danged convenience…

Plant a tree and have the squirrels and birds… inconvience is to accept

Oh yes please, Candy, plant a tree! I hated it when our trees had to be pruned, thinned out and one or two were cut down – against my will.

I hope you are planting that tree and something good can come out of all these changes – with you the wildlife will be safer than with those who do not understand it :o) xxx

Love the build up to the poem and the resolution – if you plant it they will come – pity about the neighbours though
