Concrete on covered patio looks terrible. What can I do?

How can I do something to this concrete covered patio in central ohio?
We will not replace it. Just want something to cover or camouflage it.
This area has lots of 110 ft trees and we get lots of leaves, etc, blowing in and that is just part of living here. We do not mind blowing or sweeping them off, but it is something to take into consideration. And we need a surface you can sweep easily.
If we covered it with a deck, the debris would fall into the cracks.
I am thinking of maybe gluing large faux cement pavers to the surface. Would that work? Would it hold up? Does freeze and thaw cause a problem.
We also priced some "Nature Stone" coating for the concrete, but I am not sure I like the looks. And it is really expensive.
I would welcome any and all ideas. Let's get creative.
