Nothing Gold Can Stay [Contest Finalists June 2005]
Uploaded: June 08, 2005 04:24:29
Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
-Robert Frost
