Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Brooke1020
This poem is by Robert Frost. I liked this poem because it seems so simple. I believe it is talking about stopping for a quick rest to observe and enjoy the scenery. It takes place in the woods on a snowy evening. I liked when he mentions, "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." I love the detail there and then later he describes the horse giving a nudge to make sure that it wasn't a mistake that they had stopped. What is so interesting in this piece is the detail that he puts in (the horse), isn't something that a normal writer would or could use to describe this event so vividly. This of course is just my opinion.
