The Themes of Robert Frosts Poetry

The main themes of Robert frosts poetry be Nature and mans interaction with it. Also trustworthy people and real struggle the deeper meanings of every solar day life. For this essay I will discuss mending besiege, the road not taken, out, out- and bring home the bacon, provide. Mending wall is about a stone wall separating the speakers property from his neighbours. In spring, the two meet to walk the wall and shed any necessary repairs. The speaker sees no reason for the wall to be kept as thither be no livestock to contain. This wall building act seems to have ancient roots.It involves spells to stop the elves or whoever from breaking the wall. The neighbor appears a stone-age savage while hoisting and re-building the wall. This poem deals with nature and peoples interactions with it. By keeping the wall in good condition they are keeping their land and also their relationship healthy. The road not taken, in this the speaker stands in the woods, considering a fork in the road. Both ways are as worn and overlaid with untrodden leaves. The speaker chooses one telling himself hell choose the other another day . et he knows it is unlikely that he will have the opportuninty. This fork in the road which shows two paths symbolises empty will and fate we are free to choose, but we do not really know what we are choosing between. This is a real decision real people make in everyday life. In outout frosts decpicts the uncivil death of a young boy whose hand was cut off during an accident with a go saw. The boys begs his sister not to allow the doctor to amputate his hand but inwardly realises he has doomed too much blood.The boy damps under anesthesia and everyone goes abck to work. frosting seems to be sayong there was no real need for the boys death and the adults are to bkame in thos situation. Hpwever frost knows death is a part of life. This poem nderlines the inevitability of death and the futitily of life. Provide provide is a reminder that life can b e harsh and unforgiving. Frost wrote this poem in hos early sixties and was probably feeling like life was catching up on him. He was beginning to feel his age.Frosts talks about the facts of getting oler, for example beauty fades and we should hump our fifteen minutes of fame because they wont last . he also offers some advice make confident(predicate) you die early so people remember you as young, but if you arent lucky copious to die young make a lot of money so you can live and die in comfort. When the time comes to die make sure you surround your self with friends you either made or bought, dont die alone. The last two lines are also the title reminding us to provide for our old age because no one else will.This poem features heavily on regret. Frost regrets that he spent too much time living in the present and didnt put anything off for hos later years, he seems quite bitter about this. This poem is also about mortality and the baptistry that old, and subsequently death, happens to everyone. Robert frost deals with life issues in his poetry. He writes openly about his opinions on life and death. These topics mask us all and therefore we can relate to them.
