Ginkgo Tree

Photo of an alley surrounded of ginko trees in the fall

By Kathryn Brownfield

 

Green leaf a fragile fan

 

Fluttering in faint wind

 

Sparkling in reflected sun

 

Golden shawl will fall

 

To drop a yellow carpet

 

Older than the dinosaurs

 

A living fossil

 

Surviving without change
