Summary of the Poem “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”
“Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.”
This poem has been written by Robert Frost an American poet. Most of his poems describe
nature and its beauty. This poem tells us about the story of a man traveling through some large
and distant forest. The poet is traveling through the woods. It is the darkest evening of the year.
The woods are very lovely. The cool wind is blowing which makes the branches moving and
chirping with it. The poet is moving.
“There is pleasure in the pathless woods, there is rapture in the lonely shore, there
is a society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar; I love not Man the less,
but Nature more.”
He stopped in the woods to enjoy their natural beauty. The woods are seemed to the poet
very lovely that he wants to stop there for a long time. But the horse must found it queer to stop.
“My little horse must found it queer to stop there”
.The horse found it queer to stop there because the woods are very deep and it is the darkest
evening of the year and the other reason is that there is no farmhouse nearby.
“Whose woods these are? I think, I know”
The landowner lives in the village nearby. He (the poet) wants to stop in these lovely
woods because the woods are lovely, deep, and with a slowly moving breeze.
“Nature speaks let me enjoy with you”
The poet wants to stay in the lovely and dark woods but he has many promises to keep
and his responsibilities are waiting for him. His responsibilities pull him out of the woods and also
he was many things to do before going to bed.
“The woods are lovely, dark, and deep.
But I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep.”
The poet tells us the lesson that we should make a difference between the world of reality
and the world of imagination.
