I like my orange fall just the way it is

Town Musician

I am so glad that I am not a compulsive weeder. I just recently noticed a Chinese pistachio near my neighbor's fence. It is only about five feet tall and has already the range of colors that you see on a fully grown tree. This year my trees shine like the morning sun on a rainy day. First is the persimmon tree. Then there are several crepe myrtles; they show their best dress now. The birches and maples are yellow and the Asian pear tree almost matches the persimmon tree in its burst of orange. I am not looking forward to winter, but this year fall makes winter worthwhile.
