Fallen


I was saddened to see a tree fallen in my neighbourhood this morning. Cutting off the branches of trees on one side alone (often times to make way for a building) destroys the natural balance of the tree, making it weak in the face of heavy rains or winds. I seldom see a tree these days in the city that has been allowed to grow as per its natural branching strategy. One sided trees, sadly, seem to be the norm.
