Puns and Proverbs

Since cartoon shaped hearts are overly cliche and not quite deep, I have found a new idea. I really want to keep going with the whole idea of 'gold' not really being gold, or not being really what most people perceive it to be.

My proverb is:
"All that glitters is not gold"

It came to my from a J.R.R. Tolkien poem.

     All that is gold does not glitter,
     Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
   The crownless again shall be king

The poem takes a new spin and opposite spin on the old proverb, but I still think the two strongly relate. Hopefully I can manage to connect my thoughts. There are quite a lot of them floating around in my head right now.

My main medium will be plastic. I hope it works.
