Frost.

once again, I revert back to this beloved poem by Robert Frost. It's all I can think of right now.. life, and it's crossroads.

Whose woods these are I think I know,
His house is in the village though.
He will not see me stopping here,
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer,
To stop without a farmhouse near,
Between the woods and frozen lake,
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake,
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep,
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

-- Robert Frost: Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening.


Each time I read this poem, it seems to have a different meaning for the different places I get to in life-- but then again, one sound, moral ending.
