after the frost


learned something
 new
 this past 
weekend

apparently 
gingko trees 
drop
literally drop
all
every single one
of
their leaves
the morning
 after
 the first frost 
of 
the season

that's what happened 
saturday morning
the 
entire street
from 
riverside drive
to 
west end avenue
blanketed
with
 golden leaves
and 
naked gingkos!
