Forsythia Redux


Hi --A reader sent me this after my last post. Scott




Scott,
Forsythia inspired Robert Frost to write this:




Nature’s First Gold is Green

Nature’s first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold
Her first 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.
