Stopping by the woods on a snowy evening – London, January 2013
Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
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.

Wow wow wow, beautiful picture. I can say that from the safety of my home mid summer Australia- 28 Deg C
Wow… 28C… I remember that *sob* Tough on grey, rainy days when my family and friends in S Africa keep telling me about how lovely the weather is… but when it snows, here, I could not trade places with them for anything! 🙂
Lovely post Jeanne!
Thank you Sue! Very kind of you – I hope that all is well in Knysna and that 2013 is off to a great start for you 🙂
A beautiful poem and wintry shot!
