Relics of Summer
Summer came and quickly left again — short, sweet and reserved for memories. From the look of the brown-leaved trees throughout the Bay Area, it’s hard to tell fall has come. Leaves don’t turn brilliant colors out here on the West Coast. The rainbow of reds, oranges and yellows are mere memories of fall road trips through New England now. I took a walk through Berkeley one night and came across dead twigs and crunchy leaves here and there. The only sign that fall had come — small reminders of summer.
