the old trees


The old trees by the road
The old shade trees near the pond
The bulldozers came knocked it down
The shade is gone

The housing development knocked the door
The detour the trees had to sacrifice
Though the town council didn't think hard
The trees had stood the test of time

The smell of developments
The natural trees will be chopped down
Leaving the birds no place to hide
Searching of food; shade from the sun

Now the empty space
Maybe a new road will be built
The new bus station near the market
The value of properties will hike
