Stopping On Woods On A Snowy Evening by Robert Frost

A detailed Summary of Stopping On Woods On A Snowy Evening by Robert Frost

The beautifulness of the poem "Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening" by Robert consists of the way two worlds are established and balanced: The two worlds are the world of people and social obligations, and the other world is the world of nature and magic, a perfect world of silent and solitude.

The first line of the stanza of the poem is stating that the poet is aware that the woods by which he is stopping belong to somebody else. He feels that at the same time the woods belong to him because he is the one enjoying the site of watching the beauty of nature. For example if I go to a park, I know the park belongs to the government but by watching such a beautiful landscape I'm going to feel the park also belongs to me because it's a place where anybody could feel free. The second stanza the horse feels that the narrator has mistakenly stopped in the middle of nowhere, but this is where the narrator really wants to be. He wants to be in a silent place where he cannot be bothered. The third stanza, the horse symbolizes his conscious, because

when the narrator stops in the woods the horse reminds him of his responsibility by shaking the bells on his harness. His responsibility is to go back to the real world which consist of burdens of society, and leave the magic world where everything seems perfect. The last stanza reflects his responsibilities in the real world. He emphasizes the sentence "And Miles To Go Before I Sleep" because he needs to remind himself that he does not belong in the woods.

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

To ask if there is some mistake.

The language of the poem is very calm and clear. The speaker seems to have a voice of enjoyment when he stops to look at the woods. But when he realized he has to return he has a tone of sadness and disappointment.
