Poem: Voice - Help with last line

[carahmellow]

Hi Carah,
can you explain 'golden light'? If it's a reference it eludes me (no surprise there.)

Best, Knot

I find that Frost's work often balances serious themes with a "light" quality. He uses conversational language which allows readers to engage with his work pretty easily. It's not that he never tackles sad topics, its just that his work doesnt have the dark gothic melencholic tone that Poe might have. And golden was eluding to Nothing Gold Can Stay, which is one of his most famous poems (Stay Gold Ponyboy.. Stay Gold, is another reference to it that you might know)... I wanted to elude to one of his most famous works to contrast with Poes. I may have missed the mark there though... lol
