A limerick & that's all.

Enjoy!

The Death of Dutch (Elm)

Dutch stood sturdy for hundreds of years.

A hermaphrodite, along with its peers.

But a bough dropped to earth.

Very wide. Hearty girth.

Elm was chopped. Now a stump easing fears (but causing tears).

Dutch Elm & peers (before chopping) in Stuyvesant Square Park - New York, NY.
