i am just green with jealous rage right now

Nothing Gold Can Stay

by Robert Frost

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.
                                                            
Love once found, is now but lost;
His heart, the only cost.
But boys like trees, they lose their leaves,
And girls and wind, the conveyers of grief.
The first is the harshest of the Winters,
The heart, freezing over it's cracks and splinters;
Snow once beautiful, bright and white
Fades to gray, like the dying of light
It all, eventually melts away,
For nothing gold can stay.
                                                            

The first verse by the Master, the second by me.
