The Poetry of Robert Frost
by
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
Reading Robert Frost is like dancing in the woods on a saturday morning, drinking peppermint hot chocolate and listening to your favorite music all rolled into one.
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To know that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
Poetry is so magical. It feeds the mind, heart and soul. It's like an old friend. A good song. Love. Nature.
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I�
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Pure feel-good escapism.
Some are darker than others, but equally beautiful.
My Sorrow, when she's here with me,
Thinks these dark days of autumn rain
Are beautiful as days can be;
She loves the bare, the withered tree;
She walks the sodden pasture lane.
Robert Frost's work continues to inspire and endure.

I am just delighted by every poetry review I see on here, but especially when I see Frost's work being reviewed. Good poetry doesn't die, and even if this work represented "escapism" for you, plenty of his verse is also incredibly complicated, both in meter and in meaning.Thank you for this.

I love your review, and I love Frost. I remember that the very first one I read, which I was made to memorize as a child, was:Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
I think it was the first poem I ever memorized...

Nothing Gold Can Stay is beautiful. It was featured in the movie 'The Outsiders.'
