The poem "Nothing Gold Can Stay" is Frost's way of telling us that things never stay the same; nothing lasts forever. Things don't look as good.... they get old, they get tarnished, they get lost. Even the most beautiful parts of nature, like the flowers on a petal wither away and die. Life is like this. People change....... they get older, they experience things that change them, and in the end they eventually die.
