If Trees Could Talk
"Wow! Don't you look beautiful today!"
"Thank you. He came last night and almost ran out of paint. I'm a little bit lighter at the bottom."
"You think he'll be coming back tonight? I hope he has that brilliant orange like last year."
"He said he has some new colors, but I think it's just the same old orange and gold and red stuff. Look at my neighbor! She just got her ends touched up. He'll probably come back tonight and do her roots and get started on you."
"Yeah, I hope it's soon, 'cause I feel like a dull wallflower with all you beauties around me. Were you here for the battle?"
"Yep, been here for nearly 200 years...and every year it's the same thing, wait around for him to come and color me beautiful."
