Hello Again

I found this friendly looking tree by the Central Park Boathouse. It seemed to be waving it’s branch at me, so I took a photograph and later created this drawing. Now the tree is no longer there. Because I notice unusual trees, I realize the constant reality of change. It still surprises me when I discern that a tree I like is no longer standing where I found it.
