Robert Frost, a Tribute to the Source | Robert Frost, David Bradley

My father passed away last Friday. He wasn‘t the type of dad who gave advice or had long talks with me about life. However not once did I ever doubt that he loved me. When I was in middle school and falling in love with poetry and discovering Robert Frost, he gave me this book one night out of the blue, proof that he paid attention to me and my interests in his way. Years later it remains one of the books I will never part with.

Complete Poems of Robert Frost | Robert Frost

Day 3 In Frost's poem the narrator stops, transfixed, at the place where the roads cross debating which one to take before eventually taking the road less traveled.

Three Books | Robert Frost

so-so

Book #1 of 2024: a collection of 3 books of Robert Frost poetry

I enjoyed it but it didn‘t speak to me the way it probably would have if I‘d read it decades ago. My favorite was “The Wood Pile”
