October Photo Contest "Nothing Gold Can Stay,"

[Kit Fox]

I'm going to revisit an old photo contest that I found enjoyable. Here are the rules :

Members will post up to three images that symbolize images depicted in Robert Frost's poem, "Nothing Gold Can Stay." When they post, they will have to include the picture number and write out the line of the poem which is depicted by their picture. Members can Google the poem title to obtain ideas for images. YouTube also has movies that will give members ideas for images. This poem was recited by Pony Boy in the movie and book, "The Outsiders," by S.E. Hinton.


Nothing Gold Can Stay
Natures 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.

That is a screen shot from a movie, it does not count as a photo you took.

Be sure to number your picture (for voting purposes), and only upload images you took with your camera.
