Little fragile children become strong men/women in time; life goes on… till death or an ax make us fall.
Deep haiku, Susan, excellent as usual.
Have a nice Sunday.

And fast. Love love love maples, have since a child, when I spent hours and hours and hours on the branches of some adolescent maple approaching young adulthood.
