Only Gold Can Stay- Robert Frost

To Charity S. 

A year ago today you recited this poem to me, and I'm so happy you did. I love this poem and am glad to share it with others now as you did to me. Thank you.


Nature's first green is gold, 
Her hardest hue to hold. 
Her early leafs 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.
