      <title>End Of The World</title>
      <link>http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474977145399</link>

      <description>I saw a grove of trees.

Standing, nestled together.  Seperate from the , otherwise, well groomed expanse of lawn.

It would be so lovely to sit amongst that grove of trees, and look out at the world. . . .</description>
