The worms crawl in
The worms crawl out
The worms play pinochle
On your snout.
I was in the arboretum back home with my mom on Monday and coming back to the car I notice something was missing, in that odd way that you know that something isn't right but have no clue what.
After searching for a bit, I noticed one of the pear trees was cut down. My pear tree. The one with a plaque saying it was planted just a few days after my birthday, the one that I used to hug every time I went to the arboretum. I stared at the stump for a few seconds, then sat down on it and cried.
I know it was diseased and probably needed taking down before it infected anything else, but still...it was my tree. It just doesn't seem fair that the tree should die before I did.

Bittersweet (http://newagelink.livejournal.com/122966.html), having emotions like these. I'd try to see it as a good experience, that 1) you have the opportunity to have a tree as a pet, and that 2) you have the capacity to feel for it. There are those that can do neither; on /b/ at 4chan I ran across a thread saying, "Post the picture that made you emotionless," and people posted photographs of mutilated cats and kittens.
