besides nothing gold can stay,

I have to make a short simple film for digital media class about a poem,

and i can't find any poem simple enough since I only have a one room and one person to shoot for this whole thing.

FIRE AND ICE

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favour fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

Acquainted With the Night
Poem lyrics of Acquainted With the Night by Robert Frost.

I have been one acquainted with the night.
I have walked out in rain - and back in rain.
I have outwalked the furthest city light.
I have looked down the saddest city lane.
I have passed by the watchman on his beat
And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.

I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet
When far away an interrupted cry
Came over houses from another street,

But not to call me back or say good-bye;
And further still at an unearthly height,
One luminary clock against the sky

Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.
I have been one acquainted with the night.

A patch of old snow.

There's a patch of old snow in a corner
That I should have guessed
Was a blow-away paper the rain
Had brought to rest.

It is speckled with grime as if
Small print overspread it,
The news of a day I've forgotten -
If I ever read it.
End.

What an opportunity to do a short film using only person. Think about it.

Thanks for the opportunity to share.

My favorite short Robert Frost poem is also one of my favorite poems ever:

Forgive, O Lord
my little tricks on Thee.
And I'll forgive
Thy great big one on me.

the oven bird, it's only 12 lines long. fire and ice is even shorter, 9 really short lines. you can go to this website and look at all his poems so you can choose the best one that will suit your needs.

Bravado

Have I not walked without an upward look
Of caution under stars that very well
Might not have missed me when they shot and fell ?
It was a risk I had to take -- and took.

Try the "Road less Traveled" It should work, only two stanza's and eloquent.
