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

Again, you have made the perfect combo of these two!

You have a gift for doing these, and I hope you'll be able to find the great matching sets like the ones you posted tonight!

Quality is a bit sub par since I took it with my IPad…. Hope to do better with the “good” camera next time.
