A tree outside of my window seems to have fallen victim to a failure in natural law. Time has slowed to a point where the laws of physics no longer apply.
Today is February 26, however the tree seems to believe it is October 26. While the other trees in the neighborhood are bare or just beginning to show buds, this one is still dressed in its fall splendor.
A mixture of gold, red and orange leaves adorn its many branches. As if some gremlins appeared in the dark of night gluing and stapling leaves to the tree. I am tempted to climb its trunk and remove them myself.
If they don’t fall soon last year’s leaves will be fighting for space with their 2005 brothers and sisters.
