    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. The woods around it have it - it is theirs. All animals are smothered in their lairs. I am too absent-spirited to count; The loneliness includes me unawares. And lonely as it is‚ that loneliness Will be more lonely ere it will be less - A blanker whiteness of benighted snow
