While walking home, I saw two trees some feet away from each other. Do older trees mature faster every year? Its the fall and not every tree is adorned with leaves of the same shade. Why are some more yellow than the rest? Keeping in mind, both those trees were of the same kind, although I don't know exactly what kind, I thought one could easily assume which one was older. The elder one had broader leaves and was more yellow than its neighbor, which, though taller, had fewer leaves most of which were still green. Fewer leaves.. Are the older ones supposed to have fewer leaves? Hmm... I just googled, and found out that some trees, like people, mature faster than the rest. But ofcourse.. More nutrients and more love? But I suppose it meant physical growth.. Well, I could be entirely wrong about the age, but I thought the one I assumed to be older was definitely more charming than its budding neighbor. Their leaves fluttered the same way but the younger tree held on to its leaves with its sturdy twigs while the older one gave way to the breeze and showered the car with sashaying petals. The older was broader, like the way women's hip broaden after birth. And it glowed too.
Oooo I googled the street and they had the picture of the street taken much earlier when the trees were still mad young. So, i was right! I must have come to the conclusion with the wrong reasons, but the one to the left was definitely older.
