It's That Time of Year


Exhaust the little moment. Soon it dies.
And be it gash or gold it will not come
Again in this identical disguise.

-Gwendolyn Brooks

I love, love, love Gwendolyn Brooks! I remember my tenth grade lit. teacher reading her poetry to us. I was mesmerized by the way Gwendolyn used words to paint some pretty amazing pictures. Oh my...but, you've sent me on quite a journey!
