A Gingko Boulevard

and beside it,
falling are
ginkgo leaves. 

 

Covering the ground,
a yellow carpet is being weaved.
A girl in a yellow dress
climbs the tree.

 

As a tall breeze
blows by,
thousands of leaves
flee. 

 

Above the ginkgo leaves,
linger a carefree little bee.
Folks walk by and marvel:
“…oh I can’t believe thee.”
Inside their hearts, jovial autumn songs glee.
A Ginkgo Boulevard as nature’s gift.
