Fascination

     My route to the nursing home to see my husband seldom varies. I've begun to notice the houses and vacant lots. One property caught my eye.
     It used to be a daycare facility. The back yard has a chain link fence. What is fascinating to me is this weeping willow.

       The tree has been neglected, but continues to grow and
grow and grow. It now touches both fences and the ground.
It completely hides the building behind it.
     Somehow the name of the tree is appropriate for this picture---it's been left alone, with no care. You can't sit under the shade of its branches. It's rather sad.
     This started my imagination churning.
     I don't like paying to water my big lawn and then paying someone to mow it. What would happen if we let big sections of our world go wild? I know it would never fly, but I'm thinking about what it would look like. How would it change our lives?
     So when you view this picture, where does your imagination go? Let me know!
