first poem

Noting Gold Can Stay - Robert Frost

The words are simple and straightforward. The poem feels slightly old fashioned with a contemporary twist to it.

There is a metaphor with in the poem without using like or as its saying that anything good and honest will eventually disappear and no longer exist.

The sentences are simple and direct.

The lines are short and the poem is not in stanzas.

The tone of the poem is at first sight light and airy but after analysis there is a feeling of darkness and hopelessness.

The last word of the first line rhymes with the last word of the second line and the last word of the third with the fourth and the fifth with the sixth.

It is very to the point and displays clearly what the writer want to portray.
