I don’t know if you’ve been looking around lately but there is something happening right before our eyes which was confirmed the other day as I glanced down and felt my face winch in horror at the realization of it. Yes my friends, behold, what I saw was…a leaf or rather quite a few leaves just laying there dead on the sidewalk in broad daylight. I mean, have some respect.
