This paper is written on the American poet, Robert Frost. His poetry, like his life, is filled with the contrasts of happiness and somberness. He became America's most beloved poet for his work. Frost won four Pulitzer Prizes and the poem The Road Not Taken is one of his finest piece of work. The more we read of Frost, the more we are impressed with his intellect, his thinking, his feelings, his understanding and his way of expression. Each poem is like a discovery of life, experienced by all of us. The interest he creates in his poem is absolutely superb. He portrays the incidents and other such influences that may have had a bearing on an individual life. Each poem brings us closer to life, makes us appreciate life's simple pleasures, as in birds, flowers, and fruits and the wonders of nature. And those jewels of thought can catch any one of us off guard. The depth of words creates a profound feeling at once and lingers long afterwards too and also gathers wider meanings and interpretations.
