Poems on Frost
intrepid wanderings
by Hannah
city born
rural life
cloudy days
a lone man walks
snow beneath his shoes
wind rushing in his mind
composing expressions
scenes of his America
words pulling in an
eastern direction
frost wrote poems
that speak of everyone
everytime and everywhere
Frost spoke
brave and true
passing through time
poems continue to speak.
Steady Soul
By Evelyn
Early on at home
Learning began
Standard schooling was
Not young Robert’s cup of tea
Years went by
Education, teaching, marriage
Silent poems flowing fourth
Published all the while
A spring of inspiration
Images of sorrow
Swirl through my head
As I think upon
The poet’s life
Of tragedy, of death,
Of sickness and pain
Springing from unexpected corners
Through it all
Mighty perseverance
Spurred him on
An unceasing aptitude
For capturing simple splendor
And shaping it into words
Has yet to die
Artist of language,
Craftsman of words
Arouses our souls
Will live on forever
Winter frost
Envelopes the landscape
Chill so cruel it stings
Soon sun will shine
Melting all ice away
A single blossom lingers
It has survived the freeze
