Why does Robert Frost allude to Eden in "Nothing Gold Can Stay"?

Eden's short-lived perfection is similar to the temporary perfection of nature's first green.


Eden is a place that remained perfect forever, just like the world described in Frost's poem.


Eden is known to be filled with gold.


Eden is a place that Frost visited many times.
