More than the Trees

More than the Trees (free) 01:05
These Sycamore Trees are more than the leaves. They are more than the branches you turned to debris. Roots run deep across the levee. It's more than the trees you tore down. We were told the old highway was closed to fix up the ditches and work on the road. Joseph O. Monroe thought no one would know that it's more than the trees he tore down. Sawdust from this deed be blood on the hands of the thoughtless man and the careless plan. Never again in our lifespan will we see all the trees they tore down. Ask anyone around. It's more than the trees you tore down.

about

A tribute to the beloved "tunnel of trees" that graced the Illinois Old Rt 50 - between Beckemeyer & Breese. It was tragically "pruned" by IDOT in the fall of 2011, unbeknownst to most who lived there.
