That's my Gingko - it's about 15 feet tall now. It's leaves are an inspiration throughout the growing season. All around me - artists are borrowing its shape and form - such good little and industrious imitators are we... always trying to find a new way to say the old thing. My oldest and most beloved friend Lally said it best tonight - "we all deeply desire to be in a good story".
Amen.
