Excerpt from Growing With the Years
There is a gnarled old apple tree along a walk I take on many a day. Its trunk severed at shoulder height, a black stump shows where the lightning struck. Field mice and rabbits have munched on its bark. A few limbs hang sadly from the remains of the trunk. The tree is more dead than alive.
And yet each spring this Old tree sends out on what limbs remain cheerful pink blossoms. And each fall, on what branches still stand you will find the richest, juiciest apples in the county.
