Prompt: In what ways and with what effects does Frost present the theme of the poem “Nothing Gold Can Stay”. Write a P-E-E-L paragraph.
​
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.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
