Fun+with+Poetry

Below you will find a poem that is found twice within the novel. //Goldengrove// was written with such imagery we thought it would be great for this project. The project is to create hyperlinks throughout the poem, and we want you to help! Please pick a word, phrase or part of the poem that particularly speaks to you and share with us what it means to you. You may link the words to an image, video, song or anything else you can think of (be creative!). If someone has already linked a part, change it - it will give us a reason to keep returning and we can see how the poem evolves !

 Margaret, are you grieving Over Goldengrove unleaving? Leaves, like the things of man, can you? Ah! as the heart grows older It will come to such sights [|colder]

 By and by, nor spare a [|sigh]
 Though worlds of wanwood leafmeal lie; And yet you will [|weep]  and know why. Now no matter, child, the name: Sorrow's springs are the same. Nor mouth had, no nor mind, expressed What heart heard of, ghost guessed: It is the blight man was born for, It is Margaret you mourn for. "Spring and Fall: To a Young Child"**
