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.
It's time to celebrate the changes of the seasons once again with the September Equinox starting on Friday, the 22nd. The beginning of Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere brings on the changing of the leaves and cooler temperatures and Spring in the Southern Hemisphere brings the birth of new wildlife and wildflowers as well as warmer temperatures.
I have the colors of fall on my mind today - gold, green, yellow, red, orange as well as well as purple and blue from the flowers blooming on the morning glory and sagebrush in my yard. So my challenge to you is two fold: Pick a color and 1) Find the color in the title or find a book about the color and/or 2) choose a book based on the color of the cover.
Such as Ted Dekker's Circle Trilogy:
Or Clive Cussler's Inca Gold
Or Red: A History of the Redhead
