pine cones

Lying back on the porch, looking up at the pine trees. I start counting the pine cones on one tree limb and estimate... probably a hundred on just that one limb.

It's quite possible the tree has more than a thousand pine cones on it! And therefore it's quite possible the other trees have that many too.

Occasionally I pick up pine cones when I'm cleaning up the yard. But I never pick up *that* many.
Do thousands of pine cones fall in the back yard each year, I wonder?

The pine cones are just shrapnel when they fall.
The trees are missiles.
