    When my daughter was in 4th grade she showed me a picture of a horse in a snowy woods. Her teacher had read the poem to the class. Everytime I hear it i think back over the years to that day. You reciting it as a young woman around my daughters age i believe made it extra special. Thank you.

    I think the poet likes the scenery, solitude, and peacefulness and intrigue of the woods during a snowy time, and likes the idea of a time-out to relax, but his horse, of all things, reminds him that there's nothing for them here, and it's time to plod on again to fulfill the duties of life, and so it reflects how hard life can be.

    Interesting poem. I too struggle with the temptation to give into relaxation but I have to write an analysis of this poem right now. Thank you for this and great job!

    While I am generally not a fan of "sometimes the curtains are just purple" type of analysis, that is, I do think things like that often do symbolise somethig, either intentionally or not. But, I think in the case of this poem there is still meaning to be found just by taking it at face value. Man stops by snowy woods on his way to somewhere. He might not have a permission to be there, but there's no one to see it so it is fine, and so he takes a moment to take in the beauty of the scene before he has to keep moving, things to do, places to be

    I loved the analyses. Thank you for it. I have reached some similar thoughts on the poem but you added things which had been unnoticed by me.
    About the horse shaking his head, I also infer that horses cannot understand moments of beauty as it is a very humane and contemplative feeling. I agree that the underlying topic is more about surrendering to a "deadly" moment of beauty rather than move forward, take all responsabilities. However, the repetition of the last line gives this idea of tiredness and we cannot deny stopping by the lake would be dying (he starts the poem thinking no one would find or see him there in the dark).

  • @willbaskin700
    @willbaskin700 4 роки тому +6

    Considering Frost says he wrote it in one 20 minute sitting, as if it came to him out of the blue. So I doubt he intended any clever metaphors. That said all poetry leaves itself to the readers interpretation and that's what makes it interesting. Well done

    Frost can be deceptive with how simple his poems sound but they feel quite deep and alluringly profound and then you're there wondering did he really mean all that in a poem he wrote in 20 minutes or did he merely dream up a lovely scene lol

      I have tried two weeks in a row to film a vlog actually and I keep having huge lows and not being motivated to film. A level revision is an emotional time I’m sure you can imagine. But I do really want to make one... I am taking a study break next week but the week after that I will try and make one. You know what I don’t know why I’m pressuring myself to make a whole week one - could just do a few days couldn’t I?! Will let ya know how it goes.
      Also I really really appreciate your support - lots of love friend!! xx

    Q. How did the poet come to the village?

    • @daizchalkx8490
      @daizchalkx8490  4 роки тому

      I might be wrong as I haven't taken a deep dive into the poem in a while, but I don't think he actually does go to the village? In terms of how he got to where he is now in the woods, that's left ambiguous, so the journey up to this point is mysterious. Hope that helps x

    @milesB4Isleep 4 місяці тому

    Well, you can tell by my internet name that I really like this poem. For me, it really speaks to where I am in this juncture of my life, especially since my mother recently died. Because of my faith, I feel an optimism and attraction to the afterlife. But I also feel an obligation to do the things I believe God wants me to do before I die. I strive to be a better person, not to earn salvation but to do God's will. I don't quite have the hang of it yet. There's a lot for me to learn and do in this world but I'm torn between this life and the life to come. Read Philippians 1:23

    • @daizchalkx8490

      It says “my horse” in the poem so I don’t think it’s from the horse’s perspective (although that would be cool). A lot of Frostie’s poems tend to be autobiographical or at least based on an experience of his so I tend to assume it’s a male protagonist x

    I can't believe I stopped to listen to something with "analysis" and "poem" in the same description. Must have been the brief glimpse of "oxymoronic" out of the corner of my eye. Still, your voice is lovely. My instinct suggests to me that Mr. Frost paused in the woods on the way home where beautiful words spilled from his soul. And he could not wait to get home to write them down, "Elinor! Break out the sherry, I think I've got a winner!"
