    In The Outsiders Ponyboy recites a poem on page 77. I believe that the meaning of this poem is that not everything is meant to last. In this poem‚ he talks about how the dawn becomes day‚ leafs turn into flowers‚ and how Eden sank to grief. All of these examples show how things can change. The time of change changes all time‚ as well as the seasons and more. This poem is saying that nothing in nature is meant to be the same all the time. Plants in nature grow old and slowly wither away‚ as time goes

The “Greasers” and the “Socs” both had to deal with parents abandoning them‚ being neglected‚ and not having parents there when their own children needed them most. It seemed like if you had a kid in this story that was even
