The Middle Ages. Influence of the Roman empire. The feudal system. The Renaissance and the Reformation. Influence of the court and the universities. Burst into my narrow stall; Swing the picture on the wall; Run the rattling pages o'er; Scatter poems on the floor; Turn the poet out of door. You may need them. They're only turning yellow where they are.

But you're the doctor, as the saying is. I'll put the light out. Don't you wait for me Tree at my window, window tree, My sash is lowered when night comes on; But let there never be curtain drawn Between you and me. Lancaster bore him such a little town, Such a great man. It doesn't see him often Of late years, though he keeps the old homestead And sends the children down there with their mother To run wild in the summer a little wild.

Here are your waters and your watering place. Drink and be whole again beyond confusion. It's a day's work To empty one house of all household goods And fill another with 'em fifteen miles away, Although you do no more than dump them down. States strong enough to do good are but few. Their number would seem limited to three. Not but I've every reason not to care What happens to him if it only takes Some of the sanctimonious conceit Out of one of those pious scalawags.

I know that winter death has never tried The earth but it has failed:. Your head so much concerned with outer, Mine with inner, weather.

Love and forgetting might have carried them A little further up the mountainside With night so near, but not much further up. When I see young men doing so wonderfully well in athletics, I don't feel angry at them.

I feel jealous of them. I wish that some of my boys in writing would do the same thing The thing itself is indescribable, but it is felt like athletic form. One works and waits for form in both. As I said, the person who spends his time criticizing the play around him will never write poetry. He will write criticism. Slow, slow! For the grapes' sake, if they were all, Whose leaves already are burnt with frost, Whose clustered fruit must else be lost For the grapes' sake along the wall.

I have remained resentful to this day When any but myself presumed to say That there was anything I couldn't be. The tree the tempest with a crash of wood Throws down in front of us is not to bar Our passage to our journey's end for good, But just to ask us who we think we are The woods are lovely, dark and deep. I am assured at any rate Man's practically inexterminate.

The Best Poem Of Robert Frost The Road Not Taken Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim Because it was grassy and wanted wear, Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black.
