Who Misses Shady Trees in November?

Passers by sit and chat or rest

On those empty benches,

In summer,

Under the shade of sturdy trees.

Not now.

Today they’re walking on puddles

Under a cloudy sky,

In autumn,

Or sitting indoors, by the fire,

Waiting,

For the sun to shine for a while,

as it might tomorrow,

Or later.

No one misses the shady trees,

At all.

I took both photos last week in Cantabria, Spain.

      1. I’ve been looking more closely at the branches and the contorted knots at the ends of some of the branches do seem to suggest wierd faces:) it’s a tiny village of about 1000 inhabitants I recently visited.
