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.

Epiphany
So - in other words - my grandmother passed away on the ACTUAL "12th Day of Christmas." I remembered Epiphany from being born and raised into Catholicism. If I ever knew about when the 12 Days actually are, I'd long forgotten it. I thought it was a countdown, from Advent to Christmas Day - but I guess that I was wrong. Interesting...
