Robert Frost is generally viewed as a poet of nature‚ content to describe milkweed and apple-picking. In fact‚ much of his fame is based solely on his status as a "folk philosopher." Yet‚ when his poems are analyzed in depth‚ it becomes apparent that his views on nature are quite complex‚ much more so than what is usually seen. Frost had a love-hate relationship with Mother Nature. In his personal life‚ he reveled in the simple joys of farming and being in touch with the earth. However‚ what he

I went to the concert on Monday November 19th‚ 2012 titled “An Evening of Art Song and Opera”. The concert overall I felt was put together well and the singers Lori Hultgren‚ and Kyle Engler did a very good job singing each opera song. The pianist Daniel Lau was very eccentric and moved with with the music very well making it fun to watch as he played each song.

On Uselessness If I were to advise someone young how to choose his/her career‚ I’d start by asking this person to first find something useless. Then devote his/her time and energy to becoming profoundly proficient at it. If one has chosen something as being remotely useful‚ then drop it like a hot brick.

“little” shows the speaker as an ordinary citizen who lives an ordinary and simple life with not so many luxuries. There is visual imagery seen in this stanza when the speaker describes his surroundings as “between the woods and frozen lake the darkest evening of the year.” However‚ this scene gives the reader a somewhat downcast or depressed sight and the “frozen lake” gives a cold and lonely setting to the poem which shows the isolation of the speaker’s feelings. The third stanza mainly illustrates

These lines are taken from the Robert Frost’s famous poem ‘Stopping By Woods On A Snowing Evening’. Collectively‚ postmodern society has bumbled its way into a seriously secular mentality.

“And miles to go before I sleep” My favorite line from “Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening” written by Robert Frost is “And miles to go before I sleep” (15). When I first read this poem‚ I thought it was about a man who is stopping in the woods‚ around Christmas time‚ and I thought that it was a peaceful‚ joyful poem.
