Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day, Nothing gold can stay. The poem

That my favorite poem of all

[@kellyoxo2818]

They are talking about that when we are young, everything is new, we are innocent. When we get older we become disillusioned or jaded, each person experiences events that change how we once viewed life in our youth. You can let that make you bitter and angry, or you can find the good and see the beauty in this planet. See the good that is out there. My grandfather always believed in treating us like equals and not shaming people for being human, there is always that balance of sheltering kids and educating about real things going on around them. I always felt that the poorest people of all lived in the city, in concrete prisons. Where you don't get to experience nature.

[@CreekMonsters]

+Kelly oxo wow. That's a well written comment. Thanks for sharing

[@JoseHernandez-lj5ds]

Kelly oxo that's DEEP I LIKE It

[@brakbunsen1816]

I live in the suburbs, around nature, where I don't much experience people. Yet I'm also poor, and it's difficult to have and maintain relationships when you're poor. Of course, some think the poor have it easy. I would beg to differ, with the stress of living on low-income and few, if any, vacations.

[@nashvilletennessee3194]

[@Staymellow88]

This movie is a true classic. the story of young men struggling to survive even in small town America. A story about family, camaraderie, loyalty, love the consequences of a single bad decision. This movie is as relevant now as it was then kids making hard choices that shape them into men.

@TragicHappiness94, S. E. Hinton, a very young Woman had keenly observed the raw humor, beauty, hardships, responsibilities, and sometimes tragic relationships among young men. It is a timeless, accomplished masterwork by a Sister to Manhood.

[@danielcastillo4537]

Seeing this scene makes me understand Johnny's letter in the final sequence. I think Ponyboy reciting this poem informs us that maybe he at least had a chance to live the life Johnny never could. Johnny and Dally had good hearts but they were born into situations already shortchanged by the cards dealt to them. The gold does represent innocence put it also represents " pure love." Johnny doesn't want Ponyboy to become cynical like Dally but to always have an open heart. We see this when they go to save the children in the fire. Pure Love- "Gold" means being selfless. It means sacrifice. It also means wanting for others to have a better life than you.

I lost my best friend of 30 years to cancer 4 days ago. She was 46. We spent hours discussing this movie and the book, when we were young. And throughout the years, every once in a while, one of us came up with "stay golden". I miss her so much, I can barely breathe.

This scene turned The Outsiders from just another book I’d read to my favorite. The whole movie didn’t change the contents of the book, but it amplified what made it the great story it is.

[@megancoleman6922]

this movie and book makes me feel all sorts of feelings.. There will NEVER be a story i love more than this one

[@spirit-smithentertainment-89]

This scene makes me so happy and sad at the same time because it reminds me of my grandfather, I miss him puts a tear in my eye but I was happy to have the memories and bonds that we had together as grandfather and grandson he was the sweetest man I ever known in my life, but had a greatness to him that I will miss, but I know I will always have the fond memories, that I’ll always cherish to this day. He was my best pal in life, my first best friend, I just never knew how hard it would be when someone passes on into the other realm or heaven or universe, he’ll always remind me of my grandfather, I will miss till the day I pass on as well until then I will keep on living. But I directed a photo that had this color tone in the film and this is something I wrote for my grandpa at his ceremony. This picture reminds me of someone I used to know my grandfather I dedicate this picture that leaves a memory but I know he’s there but as Ponyboy said in the outsiders “Nothing Gold Can Stay” My grandfather was one of those exceptional people where words can’t describe but I express in the words I have to say that he had a heart of gold in my eyes I still see him still time after time still I miss him a lot it’s been 4 months I thought things would get easier but sadly not always but I think the reason why is because he’s f the amount time I spent with him it’s so hard to have to be here still without him, I will always miss him with all my heart sorrow is sorrow but as I watched The Outsiders film one night I started sobbing in tears of how hard it is with my grandfather Chuck not being around anymore and I never knew that listening to the main song of the movie would hit me that hard and it did right in there in the heart then started sobbing because it reminded me of “So Gold” By Stevie Wonder but then the other thing that reminded me of my grandfather where the stories and things he did when he was younger and when he was much older, but in his later years he had reminded me of some of traits that PonyBoy has in the film such as: reading book, and liking movies. And to add one last thing the term Nothing Gold Can Stay means: “You’re gold when you're a kid, Like green. When you’re a kid everything is new, dawn. Like the way you dig movies and reading books Chuck, that’s gold. Keep it that way, it's a good way to be.” But I know that he is here in spirit as I do believe that he would be hearing me saying this right now. But I am glad I had as much time as I did in his last remaining yrs before he passed away, I love you grandpa may you rest in peace and will love you always, and forever.

[@ariannawelch2115]

I love this movie, the book, and the quote. I even memorized it all. Natures first green is gold, her hardest hue to hold, her early leafs a flower, but only so an hour, then leafs subsides to leaf, so Eden sank top grief, so dawn goes down to day, nothing gold can stay💛

Shame that memorization of poetry is no longer taught in our schools. My mother's generation was so lucky, and today she SO treasures recalling the lines, the rhythms, the alliteration, and rhyme patterns of poems learnt almost 80 years ago.

I was taught that stuff in 4th grade and now we are learning this poem in class (I'm not in 4th anymore obviously)

[@spirit-smithentertainment-89]

I remember back in my middle school yrs if I would choose a quote to go by it would have been this one but I didn’t know anything about this movie until I was much older in my teens if I had seen it back when I was 12, 13, or 14. I would put it down in my middle school graduation book because back then they asked us what quotes we wanted to use, but instead a teacher of mine said, back then I should Harrison Ford Quote but it was as good as it could be.

[@limubai753]

This poem has been my yearning to comprehend since I heard when I was 8 years old, I think I get it now, when someone I love and lost told me I had a heart of gold, nothing gold can stay, beautiful and sad.. there's more to what I'm trying to convey, but some things you have to keep to yourself til life allows you to share with the person it's meant for!

[@4ufm]

it's been a couple years but I still love this scene. it's so touching and emotional. I know the real meaning about you being innocent as a child and all, but I think this applies to Johnny as well, he's so innocent and lovely, Johnny's gold but nothing gold can stay and this makes sense because he dies too😭😭😭 i love the outsiders sooooo much, it forever be the greatest story ever told❤❤❤

In the end, Pony Boy is the stronger one because it takes more strength to hold onto Hope than to be consumed by the world. Dallas lost hope and allowed the world to take the best of him. Johnny sacrificed his life to not only save Pony Boy, but to give the children in the church a chance to live knowing that there are good people in the world.
