Frost

So a while ago I tried to write a poem dedicated to one of my favourite poets, Robert Frost. The aim was to create a piece using the titles of some of his poems. The end result was a bit of a mess.

I’ve stopped by woods on snowy eves
More times than I can say,
I’ve wandered roads not taken till
I could not find my way.

I’ve apple picked and mended walls
All by a silken tent,
I’ve been acquainted with the night
Till night and dark were spent.

I’ve asked for roses, prayed in spring
For weather hot and searing
So I could sit and read Bob Frost
Within a cabin clearing.

This is a clever idea Adam which is delivered well. Nice work. Good to see you back here. I'm a fan of Robert Frost as well.

All the best

Thank you so much, Chris, it's really good to be back. I think the idea that I had was good. But the end result could have been better lol.

Maybe you could work on the final two lines for added impact? The poem has its strengths. Good to see you back Adam.

Yes, that's a good idea, thank you for suggesting it. :)
