Robert Frost's 'Nothing Gold Can Stay'

Robert Frost wrote this poem in 1923. Frost is referencing creation from the perspective of a Christian. The poem is about creation and how creation evolves over time. Frost is an American poet from New England. He was very concerned with the current political climate. This piece is a collection from 20th century poetry.

I think Robert Frost wrote this poem as a narrative. He was writing a poem that was telling a story about nature.

This poem is not obvious because the title of the poem is "Nothing Gold Can Stay" and you have to really analyze what the poem is talking about and referring to. "Her" occurs two times in the eight lined poem, and "So" occurs two times as well. No other repetitition happens in the poem.

In the poem we know it starts in the early morning and ends soon to night when it says "So dawn goes down to day." We also know that it

The pattern is mostly AABBCCDD. The rhythm decreases as the poem keeps going because they are getting sadder and the mood is going down.

It talks about seeing the leaves and flowers in nature. It does focus on just nature and not as much of the little things but it does still talk about the little less important things.

Robert Frost wants the readers to picture an image in their mind about nature with all the flowers changing into leaves. Also with the day turning into night, Robert Frost wants everybody that reads his poem to be able to picture what is going on.

There is an ending rhyme on each line. The first line ends with gold, and the next line ends with hold. Then the third line ends with flower and the fourth line ends with hour. The fifth line ends with leaf, and the sixth line ends with grief. Lastly, the seventh line ends with day, and the last line ends with stay.

There is an electronic version of Robert Frost himself reading it, If you look it up on the internet you can find it.The original recording was put into a CD form also that you can find online and buy
