sure,
Robert Frost may say.
'nothing gold can stay.'
but you know what I think?
.
gold will stay,
free of corruption and rot,
if you preserve its beauty
in your heart.
.
gold can stay,
because it's all around us:
the twinkle of the stars,
your teasing eyes,
flowers sprinkled with morning dew,
and smiles that are as bright as the sun.
.
as long as you wake up,
and aren't blind to the gold all around us,
it will stay.
.
[to whoever is reading this: see the positives in life. preserve all the beauties around you in your heart, and don't forget to smile, lovelies!]
