Read "Nothing Gold Can Stay." How does the alliteration in the second-to-last line impact the mood in the poem?

The second-to-last line is “So dawn goes down to day.” The repeated “d” sound in “dawn,” “down,” and “day” draws attention to the movement from dawn into daytime, suggesting that a beautiful beginning passes away. This supports the poem’s reflective sense of loss as time changes things, so the best answer is “It emphasizes a sense of loss as time passes.”
