Nothing Gold Can Stay

Autumn is back

Last night was the first significant snow fall of the year for Michigan, which–while it was all winter wonderland up in hur–really had me grieving for autumn. For winter has most definitely arrived. If, by chance, you are grieving too…

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.
