Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
by Robert Frost (1923)
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
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.

Those boys look a little bit chilly. I am so happy that spring break is next week. I can really start pumping out some quality content next week. Plus I will be able to start going outside more often than normal. I can't wait. I love writing and I have yet to spend time writing outside.
One of my favorite Frost pieces. "Miles to go before I sleep". I think that says so much.

Jacob, I am very happy that it is almost spring break. We don't have ours next week, but it is coming up soon.
Jay, that line "Miles to go before I sleep" has truly been very meaningful this week. It's like I haven't had enough hours in the day.
