    In an early spring
    We see th’appearing buds, which to prove fruit
    Hope gives not so much warrant, as despair
    That frosts will bite them.

    Gold dusted all we drank and ate,
    And I was one of the children told,
    “We all must eat our peck of gold.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
