Welcome to Litsy!

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I did not care for these poems. I remember liking his famous "The Road Not Taken" when I had to read it in school, but that was the only Robert Frost poem I knew until reading this collection. Aside from one or two, I found these poems very dry and boring, and I couldn't connect to anything in them. Just not my cup of tea.

They were content to figure in the trees
As Leo, Orion, and the Pleiades.
And that was what the boughs were full of soon.

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.

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.

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”

Here is my TBR for #WinterGames - likely to change and expand. I am hoping to find some holiday anthologies and Christmas novellas and children‘s books to gain more points. #EarlyBirdPoints #TeamWreathItAndWeep
