Poem in Your Pocket

With a whoop and a yowl
I print and fold the document,
my favorite poem read today.
The current mission,
to share my love of poetry
with those who pass my way.
No harsh words, only delight,
Frost's, Nothing Gold Can Stay.

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
