Out Out by Robert Frost

Nothing Gold Can Stay was written by Robert Frost in 1923. The poem is aboout how as things grow older they lose their innocence. Like how when a leaf in the fall turns brown and dies or how when a child turns into an adult they mature and lose the innocence they had a a young child. The poem says "nature's first green is gold, her hardest hue to hold". This means that when something is first born, they are born clean and pure, which is the hardest thing to be in our time.

"Out, Out," by Robert Frost is a gruesomely graphic and emotional poem about the tragic end of a young boy's life. It is a powerful expression about the fragility of life and the fact that death can come at any time. Death is always devastating, but it is even more so when the victim is just a young boy. The fact that the boy's death came right before he could " Call it a day" (750) leads one to think the tragedy might have been avoided and there by forces the reader to think, "What if." This poem brings the question of mortality to the reader's attention and shows that death has no age limit.

The characters’ lost opportunities are shown in both poems, which makes their situation more of an injustice. It is discussed more in Disabled with flashes to past and present, generally alternating in a regular pattern. By juxtaposing the past and the present, he emphasises both of them. This makes the past seem more perfect and the present seem even worse, thus making the reader sympathise with the character more. For example, in the third stanza he says that there was an artist silly for his face and then, in the same stanza, he says that he has now lost his colour. This contrasts how handsome he was to now when he no longer fits the ideals of beauty, as both of the phrases are in the same syndetic field they are compared to each other. Colour is a metaphor for life/youth, as it makes the reader imagine rosy-cheeked children. This shows that he has lost his youth much like everything else was taken away from him by the war. This blood imagery links to death in both not only showing physical loss but loss of life (or life as he knew it in Disabled) much like everything else was taken away from him by the war. This is similar to how in Out, Out-; Frost describes the boy trying to keep his life from spilling. He uses life as a metaphor for the blood.

He makes us see and even feel the beginning of a new spring day with his very first line “Nature’s first green is gold.” The golden hues that are cast in the mornings light on the trees and filter through the leaves, lets us see the beauty and calmness that is the serenity and purity of the sunrise. This glorious golden hue does not last very long, as shown by the line, “Her hardest hue to hold.” He is showing us that as the sun continues to rise, the light becomes harsher in its brightness and the subtlety of colors become fleeting in their beauty.
