Ponyboy recalls this poem because, things aren’t going so good, Johnny has killed someone ,and Ponybohy and Johnny have to run away from the police since Johnny did a crime and Ponyboy was with him. The poem says that nothing good will stay forever, and that things will change, and Ponyboy know that he will probably never see his brother again, and all the good times have past. I think this poem symbolises that as much as you want something to stay forever, it wont and you have to accept what changes comes.
