The Yellow
Personal memory by Anthony Amedin
2002 • Skokie, IL, USA
I remember going kayaking in the Chicago river at a very young age, it was a beautiful fall day, the only things on the surface of the water were rusted yellow leaves. When I went back recently those beautiful yellow and red leaves we're missing only to be replaced by garbage.
