I never thought much about our crabapple tree. That is, not much about it as a creature.
When I was five years old
Dad told me, “It’s a catalpa.
See its seed-pod cigars.”
There used to be
a great big tree
a great majesty.
All of the homes were the same Queen Anne style on the short 6400 block of North Newland Avenue in Chicago in the 1950s.
I have always loved and honored trees for their beauty strength and resilience. Long before I became an Openlands TreeKeeper I was a tree-hugger.
