Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
Related Poem Content Details
BY ROBERT FROST
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.

Just one question - because I have a feeling the Ogre told you I'm not allowed to have it - where are my ramekins & blow torch? I've only been asking Santa for about 5 years. Me wielding a blow torch must be frightening.
As for the person I got - I'm still shopping. Hang in there. It's been a ghastly couple of days. I'll find my bearings soon. I'm known for pulling it off at the last minute.
Right back atcha, big guy!.....oh my sweet friend, you hit on every emotional cylinder!!!....thank you SO much, and may this Christmas be one of the most wondrous you've known.....
Not a Christmas dish (and we dont want people to throw up just by the smell) The loonies who eat it mostly do it in summer. I tried once, in my foolish youth, never again!Thank you, Kurben. Looks amazing. But no Surströmming?
Thank so much Flakie...These are so thoughtfully chosen and love the pink stuff!! Hope your and your family have the most Merry Christmas!
