Both poems by Robert Frost explore the passage of time and life’s changing moments. Write about a time when something in your life changed more quickly than you expected. How does this experience connect to Frost’s idea that “Nothing gold can stay”?

 Something that changed in my life quickly was that I was no longer given everything I asked for or wanted when I grew up. Even though I still sometimes get the things I ask for from my parents, it's different from how it was when I was 12 and under. I was not expecting that to change from me being spoiled to sort of being spoiled. 


Summary:  We worked on 2 different poems. The first poem we did as a class, then the second was with our people at the table. 


Reflection: I'm happy that I was able to understand the second we were on as a group, but individually, because most of the time I would not really understand the poems.
