Feeling guilty 3 years ago

I just got a bunch of cheers on this goal and realized that I haven’t done anything toward accomplishing it. Hmmm…need to go hit the poetry shelf of my library. For now I will share the first poem I ever memorized and still love to this day:

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

Brain exercises 4 years ago

I used to memorize poetry all the time. Now, for some reason, it seems so much harder to do. One of my professors told us memorizing poetry is exercising your brain, so I’m going to attempt one poem per week for now. (baby steps!)
