1. | Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening In Frost’s poem, the speaker pauses to admire the dark woods but reflects that he must continue his journey. The speaker expresses conflicted feelings and uses the natural setting for contemplation. Think about a beautiful place or object in nature, real or imaginary, which you would like to pause to admire. How would you describe this place or object? What parallels could you draw between it and your life? Write a paragraph or a free verse poem in which you describe this place or object and remark on how it might be significant to your life, literally and metaphorically. |
