Nor does it tell whether it is to do with the weather or changes in seasons with the colors. Although, it does mention how much of gold can stay with is nothing and that gives people at least a clue to what the poem is about.

Even though the war is over, it is still remembered. There seems to be diminished optimism and no smiles are evident as the season of autumn is underway. The first line of the poem is conflicting in the language and visual on “By the road to the contagious hospital”. A hospital should be a place of healing but sickness is implied which provides uncertainty. The feeling of cold and misery can be felt from the movement in the sky as quoted “under the surge of the blue/ mottled clouds, driven from the/ northeast- a cold wind…” (Ln 2-4) which provides a mood of anxiety and expectations. . A chilly reception could be received by the soldiers upon returning home as those left behind cannot relate or imagine what they’ve endured. The depiction of, “…muddy fields brown with dried weeds, standing and fallen” (Ln 5-6) feels gloomy with reminders of the soldiers that have fallen in battle. Welcoming home the servicemen and visiting them in hospitals or in rehabilitation facilities can be quite traumatic for all those touched by warfare. The reader is reminded that the journey is tough when images of the past events penetrate thoughts. In addition the brown landscaping is mundane, depressing and all encompassing. However, “the scattering of tall trees” (Ln 8) provides a glimmer of a future as the trees provide a vision of rising above

Everywhere around the world, for 21 centuries, all men and women, boys and girls, lose their innocence and cannot gain it back. The Outsiders is a book of depression, death, fear, grief, and a group of friends that act tough but are soft of the insides.

"Nothing Gold Can Stay" also has a personal sense to it, but the author of this poem, Robert Frost, does not try to make the same connection with his readers. Allegory is put to use in this poem with the case of nature. Instead of using personal pronouns to draw the reader into the story as Owen does, Frost uses them to personify nature, always referring to it as "her". The opening lines of the poem say, "Nature's first green is gold / Her hardest hue to hold". This is a common occurrence in writing, especially when dealing with nature. By personifying nature as a woman, rather than just an object, the reader is able to connect more with that character. This is because it is easier for humans to relate to another person than it is for them to relate to an object, even if only on paper.

Literally, this is a poem discribing the seasons. Frosts interpertation of the seasons is original in the fact that it is not only autumn that causes him grief, but summer. Spring is portrayed as painfully quick in its retirement; "Her early leaf's a flower,/ But only so an hour.". Most would associate summer as a season brimming with life, perhaps the realization of what was began in spring. As Frost preceives it however, from the moment spring...
Change can be very difficult in daily life. It can either bring good or bad, but either way it will end up okay. The novel “The Outsiders” by S.E.

Gold is one of the most popular metals as investment. Because of its high and consistent value, it is considered one of the safest commodities to invest in. There are several ways of using gold as an investment. Gold can be physically bough in the form of bullion bars or bullion coins. Gold exchange products can be traded in major stock exchanges in the same manner as shares. These include closed-end products or CEFs, exchange-traded notes or ETNs, and exchange-traded funds or ETFs.

Buying shares in gold mining companies comes with structural, management, and political risks but investing in the right company at the right time can increase share prices to as much as 20%.
The poem as a whole is to prove that autumn was a great season. It
