WHAT FIFTY SAID, by ROBERT FROST Poem Explanation Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: When I was young my teachers were the old Last Line: I got to school to youth to learn the future Subject(s): Aging; Schools; Students | |||
When I was young my teachers were the old. I gave up fire for form till I was cold. I suffered like a metal being cast. I went to school to age to learn the past. Now when I am old my teachers are the young. What can't be molded must be cracked and sprung. I strain at lessons fit to start a suture. I got to school to youth to learn the future. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...IN MICHAEL ROBINS?ÇÖS CLASS MINUS ONE by HICOK.
