I'm not quite sure what exactly it is about Robert Frost, but his poetry just resonates completely through to my soul, as corny as that may sound. Maybe it's that he writes quite a bit about rural folk or maybe it's that he writes so beautifully and profoundly about the natural world. His writing is pure and simple beauty. I also love his conversational works like "Home Burial," "The Death of a Hired Man," and "The Generations of Men."

I just enjoy his poetry so incredibly much. It's perfect for kicking back with a cup of tea or underneath a tree. I find that with Frost I spend a great deal more time reflecting on his poems after having read them than any other poet. I like to sit and let his words wash over me. I admire him greatly and although he may not be everyone's favorite poet, he certainly is mine. I was sad as I approached the end of this little book. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is that I wanted more, and although I realize that this is a pocket edition, many of my favorites weren't there. Still, that is one minor complaint in comparison to the esoteric poetry found within.

I'm a simple person who takes pleasure in the little things in life, and I think that's why his words resonate so deeply with me. I recommend picking this volume up to anyone who enjoys poetry, but it's especially handy for those truly tasting Frost for the first time, as it is a small enough volume with a wide range of his works.
