Death of Us All
"If there are no more trees left, how are we going to live mommy?" Rosalyn asked her mom, looking up
with her big bright blue eyes. She stood looking out the window, playing with the peeling paint on the
wall.
"I don't know baby girl but we will, I promise." The mother said, with her hands on her pregnant
stomach. A tear ran down the side of her face, quickly flicking it off not wanting her daughter seeing it.
She placed her hand on Rosalyn's back, pushing her away from the window after shutting the blinds.
Behind the blinds was the look of fear, it was ugly. It was grey, there were men with chainsaws. Cutting
down every thing green leaving dust and dirt. It was dry and hot, the only tree in miles was the one in
their back yard, they would soon find and destroy it. What will they have to do to stay alive?
