Tree House
When you were a kid, what was the one thing you really wanted? Most girls wanted a pony, and most guys wanted a BMX or something close. I wanted a tree house. My family never had a good tree to do that in, and if we did, I don’t think I could have gotten anyone to build it for me. Then there’s the cost of materials and the fact that my mom was overly cautious. It sure would have been cool when I was younger.
I am finally starting to feel like I am getting the things that I really want, and this tree represents that. I get the chance to paint, I’m able to play drums, and I am married to a girl that I really love being around. Of course, she is in my tree house with me, and nobody else is coming up.
As I get older, I hope this tree becomes more extravagant, and one day I will probably have to have more branches, but this is where I want to be: At sundown, in my tree house, with the woman that I love.
