642: a tree limb


From the book of 642 prompts comes a simple idea, a tree limb. But whose limb is it? The metaphor goes back and forth. Which came first, tree limbs or human limbs? Is it an Ent, a fantasy-humanoid tree from Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings?" If human limbs name a tree, then whose limbs are they? The trees will soon shed their leaves and we will see those limbs unclad.
