My favorite poem is Robert Frost’s “Nothing Gold Can Stay,” because it the truest description of experiencing life. I also, loved the “Outsiders” growing up and appreciate the positive idea of “Stay Gold.” So, like Johnny told Ponyboy to Stay Gold, as he does when he looks at the Sunset; I would like to remind you to Stay Gold, my fellow dreamer. Although nothing gold can stay, you can always find a way to hold onto your golden outlook.
Nothing Gold Can Stay
By Robert Frost
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.
