Post # 251

Well, then. I'm kind of bored right now and have nothing to do. So here I am. Um..
What now?
I like pie.
I'm wearing a pirate bandanna today. Yes, I'm allowed to do that. It's fairly awesome. For some reason, my brother's middle school didn't allow them to wear bandannas because a bandanna apparently counts as a gang symbol and they didn't want anything related to gangs at their pristine, too-early-start-time suburban middle school. True, they let out at like two thirty, and we let out at like four, but whatever. The point is, it's not likely that there are going to be gangs in this area of this state, not even in the middle school where bandannas aren't allowed.
So anyway, I have no idea what to say now. Um... I'm going to go search around some random blogs and then come back and report about anything that sparks my interest.
Okay, I'm back. I have just found a poem by Robert Frost on some other blogger's blog. It is a very awesome poem that is also on one of the Senior Walls. Here it is.

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
Nothing Gold Can Stay

It kind of reminds me of "all that is gold" by JRR Tolkien.

All that is gold does not glitter
not all who wander are lost
the old that is strong does not wither
deep roots are not reached by the frost

from the ashes a fire shall be woken
a light from the shadows shall spring
renewed shall be the blade that was broken
the crownless again shall be king

So yeah.
I'm going now.
