The author is focusing on an inanimate object that separated two individuals even though it is nothing more than a little stone wall in the middle of a field. Something there is that doesn’t love a wall‚ That sends the frozen-ground swell under it‚ And spills

    Desert Places by Robert Frost Snow falling and night falling fast‚ oh‚ fast In a field I looked into going past‚ And the ground almost covered smooth in snow‚ But a few weeds and stubble showing last.

And lonely as it is‚ that loneliness Will be more lonely ere it will be less - A blanker whiteness of benighted snow
