It used to be a sad day in a village Naut, well all were a kind of near relation or friend of someone in the family. Rather different now those little cottages bought for holiday homes.

Re: SAm

Re: Kabu

A lot of those trees have been cut down Kabu . Some have had a kind of rust or something similar. I suppose it can travel on planes or birds etc. Although there are still quite a few trees that seem to have shaken it off.

Re: Pat

Your poem is full of individuals each in their own world, and part of the shared world, too. Individual and universal at the same time.
