It is fall here in Lima. That was why when I looked up and saw a tree in bloom, I was surprised. Trees in autumn don't bloom. Leaves turn red and orange and yellow and fall.Intensely pink petals littered the night sky instead of stars. Lights from the casino marquee cast a neon glow on the flowers. I was arrested, for a moment, by the glowing, pulsating petals floating in the yellow and mauve smog, then reached for my camera and clicked.
