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.

Which statement best describes the theme of this poem?

• Change is precious and exciting.

• Change will happen, and every moment is precious.

• Change should be feared and avoided.

• Change is boring and unnoteworthy.
