Nature And People In Frost's Poetry

Imagine standing in a lush, green meadow. A slight gust of wind disturbs the rest of a few birds in the rustling birch trees. In the distance, the sound of a horse’s harness bells can be heard on its travels into town, yet it cannot be seen. The old country road is separated from the meadow by a handmade stonewall. To the right is an apple orchard. The apples smell so grand that one’s mouth begins to water. Then as though the days of youth had pushed you over, you lie in the meadow and stare at the fluffy clouds dancing in the blue sky. This wonderful picture is often the setting of Robert Frost’s poetry. These details help to set the idealistic moods of his poems such as in “The Road Not Taken”, “Mending Wall”, and “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”. Frost often intertwines human tragedies, fears, complexities, and the acceptance of burdens within the beautiful setting to create a figurative and symbolic story.

Woods are one of the more common settings of Frost’s poetry. As in

”The Road Not Taken”, He uses woods to represent a moral or mental crossroad.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,


The woods are lovely, dark and deep,

Robert Frost has the unique gift of presenting his most beloved subjects, nature and people in a manner that reaches out to the reader and pulls them in. The beauty and reality that can be found in his writings, relates solely to his audience. All of Frost’s poetry expresses humanity, manners, failures and triumphs, but they are also works through which the people work, walk, and converse not only throughout actions and words, but also nature.

Even though the woods are delightful to look at, Frost remembers he has obligations and responsibilities to fulfill before his time is through. Death is not quite worked into his present plans quite yet (Untermeyer 192). Frost uses this poem to teach people that you need not rush life, let it come to you. A sensitive person, such as that in the poem can find freedom and solitude in nature. They have the gift of appreciating such things. Even though he wastes time with such a foolish act, so many luxuries are acquired (Oster 79).
