today, wot work i had was washed out,so i decided to visit an old friend.
i went to where i positivily knew where they were,as i last was there 8 mths ago to take and document them with photos.
i got there and the space that they filled was empty. i went in2 semi shock thinking
that maybe i had gone mad or delusional and had come to the wrong spot…......
but no, i knew the address but still i drove my car round the area just in case, but
no, this was the spot,they were gone no where to be seen!
then a nieghbour came out walking her dog and and told me that they had been
cut down in their prime!!!!!!!!!!!! i was devistated, shocked, i couldn’t believe it, why they
looked so healthy 8 mths ago and were 80 plus years old, maybe even more!
i couldn’t believe death could creep up so quickly on one so healthy, why ….just cut
down for no reason 7 mths ago….......then they told me they were too far on the road for too long, and that they had been hit several times b4,it was just a matter of time
b4 it happened again and someone would be injured or killed!
RIP THE gianormous BLOODGUM that WAS on GOLFLINKS RD
KILLARA, NSW,AUST
i will dearly miss u and ur unbelievable colour and the way that
you shared the road with vehicles and that cute way that i would swerve to give way
to you as not to damage u or myself 4 that matter,you were the most majestic
i had seen in a long time.
farewell sob,sob!
i am glad i got to paint u!! and im glad you evolved where you did,so i could find you!
