The neighbors were all out today, taking advantage of the 50 degree weather, raking, blowing, vacuuming, grinding, bagging. It looks so neat and tidy on the freshly cleared lawn, but the tree is not through shedding. Leaves that spent their entire lifetime of this summer budding, growing, and coloring still have the moment of releasing ahead. Some will nosedive directly to the ground, some will wait for a good wind and dance their way across the road - around the neighborhood. Some will dance and swirl delicately, catch the updraft, and ride the currents to the ground again. I would choose that if I were a leaf, before I took my rest. :-)
