Hey,
I just felt like posting a poem about which we spoke in the English lessons last week, because I quite liked it somehow. It is called "Nothing Gold Can Stay" and was written by Robert Frost in 1923. Here it is:
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.
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.
I do not know exactly why, but I am kind of fascinated by its deeper meaning that one will find on reflection. Well, probably due to the fact that it is simply true - at least in my view. You should form you own opinion though, therefore happy philosophising!
