Nothing+Gold+can+Stay

 Natures first green was gold Her hardest hue to hold Her early leafs a flower But only so an hour Then leaf subsides to leaf Then eaden sank to grief So dawn turns to day Nothing gold can stay
 * Nothing Gold can Stay **

Robert Frost 

Analysis:

Robert Frost uses the innocence of nature to portray an important lesson. As the sun rises, the flower gains a unique and beautiful perspective. It has a pure "hue" that looks so precious, but beauty can never last. "But only so an hour" will this beauty remain. Life is short, and it is important to enjoy the most while you can. Taken advantage of all opportunities presented, because "nothing gold can stay."
