24. Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leafs 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.  By Robert Frost

27.  The rhyme scheme is AABBCCDD  Alliteration -- "Nature's first green is gold," "Her hardest hue to hold," and "So dawn goes down to day."  Alliteration, like most sound devices, is used to draw the reader's attention to particular words or phrases. Here, the first example shows that gold is even more prized a color in nature than green; the second emphasizes how brief a color gold is in nature -- the gold that comes with the sunrise, that is. The third example shows how quickly sunrise simply becomes sunlight.  Allusion -- "So Eden sank to grief" -- This refers to the Garden of Eden, where Adam and Eve brought death into the world by giving in to temptation, in the Old Testament.  This allusion shows how fleeting the perfect and the ideal are in our world.  Personification -- referring to Nature as a female.

28.  Now that you understand the meaning of the poem “Nothing Gold Can Stay,” make a connection to your personal life and discuss what your “gold” is.  Do you agree that nothing gold can stay? Why or why not? What are some examples of wonderful things that are permanent?
