Hedge

The man with the oversized blowdryer whirlwinds the leaves . On either side of the path is a tall laurel hedge, obscuring the view. I wonder where the path might lead; Sleeping Beauty's castle or a house like all the others along this road? I really want to know. But we can't, can we... Would there even be a path if there was no hedge? Would there be a path if there were no leaves?
