Nothing Gold Can Stay
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
Love Mr. Robert Frost--wonderful to hear him recite his work. Thank you Cathy! ♥

DeleteLovely post, Cathy. Is that Redbud sprinkled in the trees? I love seeing a mature redbud in the midst of other trees, that's when it shows off the best in my opinion. Beautiful photo.

DeleteYes, that is a Redbud. We have 3 sprinkled in our woods and one by itself.
Robert Frost, one of my heroes. He's on my two of my lists - "Geniuses" and "People I'd Like to Have Lunch With." Thanks for this, Cathy and have a good weekend. Gloomy and overcast here in the Finger Lakes, but no snow or tornadoes either, so no complaints here. :>)
ReplyDeleteDitto to everything you said! We did, however, have sun for a long while today, but clouding up now.
