Goodbye To The Trees

Personal memory by Jessica Elejarde

2010 • Port St. Lucie, FL, USA

I've lived in Florida my whole life and I have watched it grow and be all destroyed. When I moved to a little town called Port St. Lucie, there were barely any buildings, it was all trees. When the population started to grow, more houses came along which meant fewer trees. It was sad to see all the animals fleeing their once homes, to the roads.
