leaf zen

This morning, as I was walking from the bus stop to the cafe (yeah, I know: hard life) I saw a couple who were about my age having a leaf fight. (This is kind of like a snow fight, but warmer.) Outside the public library are about ten large maple trees which have coated the ground with a beautiful red-orange blanket. I wanted to stand and watch them or take a picture, but I did not want to appear stalker-like. Perhaps I'll update this post with a literary picture later.
