"Stopping By the Woods On A Snowy Evening" is a poem written by Robert Frost in Rubaiyat Stanza. This means it is written in four four-lined stanzas. Like most of Frost's poems it is a study of New England nature as a broader allegory for life.
The person being addressed in "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost is the narrator himself. He is reflecting on the beauty and lure of the winter landscape as he pauses during his journey.
Who's 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.
I know this poem all from heart, and in case you are not sure,
the "and miles to go before I sleep" is typed twice in the real poem,
as I have it above. Hope this helps!
