Global Warming On Clinton Street?

oo
A tiny white cherry blossom. Can you see it?

Imagine this, dear reader! On an otherwise bare tree on Clinton at the corner of Union, right opposite from the Carroll Gardens Public Library, there stands a very small bare weeping cherry tree in a row of others planted in wooden boxes.
But there, amongst the brown branches of this tree, a delicate little bloom is blossoming. As white as snow against the gray November sky. As though it were spring here in Carroll Gardens. As though Thanksgiving is months away.
Global warming you say? Maybe yes. Or maybe this little bloom just did not want to wait through winter to show off its beauty.
