A little bit of Frost.

Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening




Whose woods these are I think I know.

His house is in the village though;

He will not see me stopping here

To watch his woods fill up with snow.


My little horse must think it queer

To stop without a farmhouse near

Between the woods and frozen lake

The darkest evening of the year.


He gives his harness bells a shake

To ask if there is some mistake.

The only other sound's the sweep

Of easy wind and downy flake.


The woods are lovely, dark and deep.

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep.
 
 
Robert Frost (1874-1963)
 
 
Another poem that I think some people think it is a cliche to like - I don't care really. It paints a vivid picture and a yearning and I like it.
