Haiku...

Icicles...

Dangling crystals,

They are nature's chandelier,

Illuminating.

~Kalurah

petals...

stirring with passion
paying homage to the sun
your time will be brief

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.

From "Complete Poems of Robert Frost", 1916
