Leaves Compared with Flowers
"I bade men tell me which in brief,/ Which is fairer, flower or leaf./ They did not have the wit to say,/ Leaves by night and flowers by day./ Leaves and bark, leaves and bark,/ To lean against and hear in the dark./ Petals I may have once pursued./ Leaves are all my darker mood." - ROBERT FROSTOf Interest
