“At times on the orchard, the leaves fluttered like locusts. At times they turned upside down and showed their white undersides in an almost embarrassing way. At times they turned orange and brown. And at times they kept spinning off the trees like whirligigs. Now they were perfectly, sublimely still, like an audience. Birdie moved her lips to Enrico’s and sighed into them, touching her forehead to his. From the trees, they looked like full-grown lovers.” — Jodi Lynn Anderson

Birdie moved her lips to Enrico’s and sighed into them, touching her forehead to his.
From the trees, they looked like full-grown lovers.
