Nothing Gold Can Stay Introduction
"Nothing Gold Can Stay" is hard lớn describe in a nutshell, because, well, it"s somewhat of a nutshell in itself. It demonstrates one of the main reasons why its writer, Robert Frost, was able to lớn create so many enduring poems: he had a knack for summing up the whole world in a few elegant little lines.Frost, one of America"s (if not the world"s) most beloved poets, wrote some very successful long poems, lượt thích "Home Burial" and "Mending Wall." But he"s most famous for the poems "The Road Not Taken" and "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening," which are only a few lines longer than "Nothing Gold Can Stay." và it"s his shortest works, poems lượt thích "Nothing Gold Can Stay," & "Fire and Ice"—eight and nine lines long, respectively—that prove that big things can indeed come in small packages.
Short enough that it"s easy to memorize, và hard to forget khổng lồ begin with, "Nothing Gold Can Stay" covers everything from a tiny leaf, to the cycle of the sun, khổng lồ the Garden of Eden, in only eight lines. In other words, this poem is expansive, so be careful not khổng lồ make early conclusions from the title.
Instead of being all about the benjamins, this poem is more about gold as a symbol of youth và beauty. And like the gold of King Midas, the gold in these verses—the joy of youth and beauty—can never last. Bummer, right?
