nothing gold can stay

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.
Robert Frost

Después de haber dado sombra y paz ¿Por qué se suicidan las hojas cuando se sienten amarillas ? Es para mí una imagen muy esquemática de la melancolía y la esperanza de que este oro sea el primer verde de una nueva primavera. Un abrazo muy cordial Adele

Non ho mai pensato al suicidio delle foglie quando diventano d'oro...una metafora di grande suggestione la tua, caro Anton. Sì, la bellezza dell'autunno sta nella sua malinconia che a mio avviso ha una sua valenza positiva, in quanto invita alla meditazione e all'introspezione.
Ricambio il tuo abbraccio ringraziandoti, caro amico !

Beautifully captured at just the right time Adele. The cycle of nature will start again, but this is the last we will see of this gorgeous leaf!!

Molto bene si può vedere la tensione dell'acqua superficiale.
Piccole bolle sul bordo della foglia aiutano la nitidezza.
È un'immagine di tranquillità e serenità e di sguardo.

Anche qui una foglia in autunno - ma in fuoco
