The correct answer is number of words.
When you are analyzing a poem, you are trying to find its meaning, or rather, the theme that the poem is presenting. There are many ways to do this, but the most common one is to interpret the literary devices the author used, the literal and figurative meaning of his/her words, and the structure of the poem itself.
Whether the poet used just a few or a lot of words has no particular impact on the theme of that particular poem.
<span>Limited omniscient is the correct answer. With limited omniscient, the narrator knows everything - about one character. Their knowledge is limited. Omniscient narrators know everything about all characters. First person, rather than seeming like a close friend or confidant, makes it seem like we are in the narrator’s head.</span>
Nothing Gold Can Stay is a short poem of eight lines that contains subtle yet profound messages within metaphor, paradox and allegory. It is a compressed piece of work in which each word and sound plays its part in full.
Written when Frost was 48 years old, an experienced poet, whose life had known grief and family tragedy, the poem focuses on the inevitability of loss - how nature, time and mythology are all subject to cycles.
As with many a Frost poem, close observation of the natural world is the foundation for building poetic truths, inside of which lie hidden messages and ideas.
When the leaves start to show in the season of spring they are perceived as gold, but soon turn to familiar green and before too long they're fading as victims of time.
So it's possible to pick out three distinct associations:
the season of spring - holding on to precious color.
time - and the pace of life.
Eden - how humans experience grief and shame.
