Michael Midence “Acquainted with the Night”: Robert Frost on Darkness In Robert Frost’s poem "Acquainted with the Night" Frost has left this poem up for many interpretations. The poem begins “I have been one acquainted with the night‚” it means‚ basically‚ that he has met‚ or has some knowledge of‚ the night. It is a neutral way to say something.

The City at Night I step forward into the deep‚ soft snow and hear the sound of a muffled packing of frozen wetness. All the sounds are muffled‚ yet somehow amplified by parentheses they fall hard but slow‚ despite the weight.
