Frost brings He begins with "My long two-pointed ladder's sticking through a tree" (line 1). This line gives the reader a visual concept of a long pointed ladder nestled in an apple tree. And, allows the reader to expand that image to a multitude of apple pickers with their pointy ladders alongside him in neighboring trees. Frost continues with the visual images with following lines:

And there's a barrel that I didn't fill

Beside it, and there may be two or three

Apples I didn't pick upon some bough. (Lines 3-5)

Because of these lines, the reader envisions an apple picker on his ladder high up in the tree fling as many barrels as he can, but still not filling them all. In addition, to the visual images, Frost then moves on to olfactory imagery.

In one very simple line, " The scent of apples: I am drowsing off" line 8, Frost gives the reader an opportunity to smell apples. As he does not specify the type

of apples being picked it is left to the reader's imagination as to what type of apples he or smells.
