Shouldn't…but Do

The hum is more than the air conditioner outside an office on a summer day.

Accommodating cottonwoods add to the tune.

One dead tree in a lush, diversified greenbelt.  Does it add?  Subtract?  The choice is yours.

Merciful cherry branches shield me from the sun.

One brilliant yellow daylily, like a star, blooms through a chain link fence.

Steps away, north-south traffic tends to rush hour.

The hum is more than the air conditioner, or the traffic, on a summer day.
