The title of the poem is metaphorical and gold represents value and wealth so when it says nothing gold can stay it means that nothing that is precious or of great value in the materialistic way can stay forever. As gold symbolises materialism it wont last for long and it will give us gfake happinessh and another thing is that gold and other things which are money based can take years to accumulate but can be washed away in a millisecond. On the other hand, things having emotion and sentimental values cannot be bought with money and therefore will remain with us throughout our life.

The poet personifies nature with a commonly used term as emother naturef and I think the hidden meaning behind this is that the poem he has written carries the same message that has been preached for years, yet no one bothers to follow or listen to it.

The poet says gnaturefs first green is goldh he compares the colour of nature egreenf with something that can be bought i.e. gold. Maybe he is trying to say that naturefs first baby is green that is just as valuable as gold but the he says gher hardest hue to holdh which might mean that green was her hardest hue to hold as it was the most valuable just like gold and it would be taken away from her.

gca flowerh flower symbolises purity, beauty and nature just like a new born baby, and when the poet says gher early leaffsch it proves that he is talking about something just born or created. However, he then says, gbut only so an hour.h which makes evident that the beauty and innocence will only stay for an hour and then fade away. gEden sank to griefh, the Garden of Eden has always been symbolic of Adam and Eve and the forbidden fruit, so the poet probably wants to say that naturefs first flower, i.e. Adam and Eve were innocent and pure but after a certain time, they too were tempted by the fruit and they had to come down to earth and thatfs why Eden was angst. gcdawn goes down to dayh just like dawn

    “Ships at a distance have every man’s wish on board. For some they come in with the tide. For others they sail forever on the horizon, never out of sight, never landing until the Watcher turns his eyes away in resignation, his dreams mocked to death by Time. That is the life of men. Now, women forget all those things they don’t want to remember, and remember everything they don’t want to forget. The dream is the truth. Then they act and do things accordingly.”(1)…

    “Nothing Gold Can Stay” means that nothing perfect can stay. In life, the best things are the ones that don’t last forever. The most beautiful things in life are the things that have the shortest life. In the poem, it says "Nature’s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold”, this means that the most beautiful color of nature is gold, but it also is the hardest color to last. In the book when Johnny refers to “Nothing Gold Can Stay” he is telling Ponyboy to stay with all that innocence that they had in their childhood. When the Greasers were small, they were innocent, but when they grew to adults, they became less innocent, violent, mean, rule breakers, etc… So what Johnny wants is that Ponyboy doesn’t become violent, mean, rule breaker,…

    To me, the poem appears to be comparing our youthful years as being as valuable as gold. We are to enjoy our time when we are young for it is the "…hardest hue to hold…" on to. It is also saying that our childhood years are very short and feels like "…but only so an hour…" As we grow older, our garden of "…Eden sank to grief…" The beginning of our life will quickly end as "…dawn goes down to day…" So in the end "…nothing gold can stay…" which refers to the end of our innocence.

    In the lyric poem, “Nothing Gold Can Stay” by Robert Frost, it describes the gorgeousness of nature in the morning sun by saying it was comparable to gold or a flower, and explains how it is saddening that it would go away when it nears day. And, with the use of a lyric poem which is a poem that expresses the thoughts or emotion of the speaker and it involves the use of a rhyme scheme he was able to explain his thought and emotions more clearly to the reader. Although the poem explains how nature is incomparably beautiful in the morning and sadly disappears closer to the day, he is able to illustrate the underlying meaning through the use of metaphors, personification, and…

    I try to appreciate the things I have now and not take things for granted. Even the little things. Such as the people in your life, current situations and always look at the positive side of things or the “gold” side of things. Because they may not be around for much longer. The poem talks about perfection and beauty that doesn't last. The author wrote the poem to compare from personal experience, to inform that it’s true in life. I think the poem is happening during the Spring time and possibly in the Garden of Eden to portray that that is where things are supposed to be perfect. But in reality they are not, and definitely not…

    Edgar Allen Poe was well known for his dark and mysterious writing, but what caused his abrupt death? How he died is very controversial, because there is little evidence to support any theory. Several people suggest that he died either of rabies, exposure, or alcohol abuse. Although Poe’s death remains in doubt, I believe that several factors led up to the writer falling ill. I have gathered from the biography excerpt renamed “Poe’s Final Days” by Kenneth Silverman, the article “Poe’s Death is Rewritten as Case of Rabies, Not Telltale Alcohol”, with the letter to the editor in response published in the New York Times, that Edgar Allen Poe died of symptoms of alcoholism, that escalated from stress.…
