When you see a poem, post a poem:

When life is darkest
Never listen to your thoughts
They don't know what's true.

Very true.

Nature's first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold
The early leaf's a flower
But only for an hour
So leaf goes down to leaf;
So Eden sank to grief.
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

-- Robert Frost
from memory, hopefully reasonably accurate.
