Winter's coming.
(Shhhh. Did I really say that? Right out loud? [shudder] I should have my mouth washed out with soap.)
Leaves are changing color.
This year, more than other years, I'm noticing how one branch's leaves will turn red or orange, while the rest of the tree's leaves are still green. It's so patchy. And it's not just one or two trees; many are showing the same pattern. It seems odd.
Then I think of people's hair. How my gray hairs all come from the same small patch on my head. How a man's beard will change with one stripe graying before the rest. How some people will turn gray at their temples first.
Maybe those trees are more like us than I thought.
