Trees. They are everywhere. In the fall, they change colors, slowly drawing the attention of people all around the world. They don’t turn all at once. It seems like the tree paints its leaves a couple at a time. There are swirls of yellows slowly giving way to oranges and reds, finally ending with a shriveled brown leaf. In winter, the leaves are all gone, leaving a bare, glorified stick. The barren tree rejoices as spring comes. Spring brings fragrant buds and emerging leaves. When summer rolls around, the tree is back to its former green glory. Fall comes and the cycle starts again. This is the life of a tree.
