I did not get this poem the first time I read it through. However, once I took the time to actually think process it and not just merely scan over it an say 'mhm good job' I understood the meaning of it and I really like the play on words.

you are amazing my bush headed slightly sarcastic very funny friend

This is exactly how I feel right now. It's hard, but i'm glad to finally be getting there. I wish you luck with getting there too.

More sad! Who is leaving? I swear I'm on those poems, I've just been busy. Miss those elm trees too, Davis only seems to have Chinese elms, which are way uglier. Like the last line. Love you, miss you, I'll be home soon!

all the parentheses are a little distracting, but i like the elm trees.

hey check out the review marathon!

I think it would be 'leaf', but I didn't know that was a verb. Interesting choice of words though.

The corrolation between your tree and whatever was being let go of is a bit cliche, though. Maybe expanding the piece could resolve that issue.
