Nothing Gold Can Stay Poem by Robert Frost

Nothing Gold Can Stay

Rating: 4.3


Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf,
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day
Nothing gold can stay.

I love this poem it reminds me of my childhood and how precious my family were to me. They've now passed away and I'm a middle aged with nothing but pain in my life.

Since Eden we face decay but still beauty remains. Gold will not stay when it is underappreciated.
