It was extremely boring.

It was merely a compilation of poems that were highly difficult to comprehend.

There was absolutely nothing that caught my attention or stood out to me regarding this book.

The poems seemed to lack any sort of unique charm or engaging element.

It felt like I was just going through the motions, trying to make sense of words that seemed to be randomly strung together.

I found myself quickly losing interest and longing for something more exciting and meaningful to read.

Overall, this book was a major disappointment and failed to leave any lasting impression on me.

I've desired a collection of Frost poetry for a considerable period. I regard Frost as my favorite poet, yet I have overlooked reading a significant portion of his back catalog. Fortunately, I managed to discover a copy of this book hidden away in a quiet corner at "Page 101" (one of the few excellent English bookstores in Taiwan - situated in the shopping center at the Taipei 101).

I derived great enjoyment from many of the poems in this book. However, I found the commentary by Louis Untermeyer to be entirely superfluous, largely uninformative, and extremely distracting. I must admit that when compared to his numerous poems about birds and nature, which seem to lack a profound message beyond "Look at the pretty bird," I much prefer Frost's inspirational or darker poetry. It is during such moments that I find my attention straying.

This collection showcases two of my favorite works, "Stopping By A Woods On A Snowy Evening" and "The Road Not Taken." My book is now filled with dog-eared pages and notes from other newly discovered Frost poems that I adore. If you are in search of a collection of Frost poetry, this is likely one of the less impressive compilations due to the subpar quality of the aforementioned narrative throughout the book.

Estos poemas tienen la capacidad de capturar los momentos más sutiles y significativos de la existencia, convirtiéndolos en palabras que resuenan en nuestro corazón.

A través de la poesía, podemos explorar la belleza de la naturaleza, la profundidad de los sentimientos humanos, y la complejidad de la vida misma.

La lectura de poemas que hablan de la vida nos permite conectar con nuestra propia humanidad y con los demás. Nos hace reflexionar sobre nuestras propias vidas, nuestras esperanzas, nuestros miedos y nuestras alegrías. Además, nos ayuda a apreciar los pequeños momentos maravillosos que a veces pasan inadvertidos en nuestro día a día.

En resumen, los poemas que simplemente hablan de la vida son una forma maravillosa de expresar la esencia de lo que significa ser humano. Son una invitación a descubrir la belleza y la profundidad que existe en cada uno de nosotros y en el mundo que nos rodea.

Robert Frost's poetry holds a profound significance for me on a personal level.

I was raised in an environment where his words were constantly in the air and his books were always within reach.

My grandfather, who bravely battled Parkinson's Disease, had a particular fondness for quoting the poem "Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening".

"I have miles to go before I sleep," he would often say, his voice carrying a hint of both determination and weariness.

Mr. Frost's poetry was the very first influence that shaped me as a writer.

His poems possess a quiet and understated quality, yet their meaning is truly great.

In just a few stanzas, he has the remarkable ability to paint a vivid and beautiful picture, beneath which lies a deep and universal truth.

His descriptions of the surroundings are not burdened with excessive words. Instead, he crafts an effective and evocative image through the use of minimalistic imagery.

With each and every one of his poems that I read, I gain a deeper understanding of the kind of poet I aspire to be.

His works continue to inspire and guide me on my literary journey.

I truly enjoy Frost's nature-centric poems. There is something about the way he describes the beauty and wonder of the natural world that always manages to capture my imagination. However, I must admit that a significant portion of his poetry is more like short stories. While this can be an interesting approach, I find that many of these poems are rather dull. They lack the excitement and energy that I look for in a great piece of literature. The characters and plots are often predictable, and the language can be overly simplistic. Despite these drawbacks, I still appreciate Frost's work for its unique perspective on nature and the human experience. I just wish that more of his poems had that special something that would make them truly unforgettable.

Robert Frost's poems and lyrics have a unique charm that captivates his readers' attention. He uses simple vocabulary, yet his sharp observation enables him to turn usually forgotten thoughts into unforgettable phrases.

In "A Boy's Will", his words are exuberant, full of youthful energy and enthusiasm. "North of Boston" is a collection of poetry that seems to talk to the readers, having its own distinct voice.

Frost has a deep understanding of human conditions. His words and classic verses have the power to burn and touch our hearts, leaving us with a lasting impression. His vivid observation and rich enjoyment of all kinds of practical life are depicted in the way he renders the meter of customary speech.

Each of Robert Frost's poems demonstrates different aspects of the elements of poetry. He had a sharp sense of irony and literary brilliance. The way he built a conversational tone into his verses impressed me deeply. I gave this book five stars because Mr. Frost understood how to use language to convey feeling and compassion. I simply love his poems.

Frost is a four-time recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for the best book of poetry of the year. He knew how to say a great deal in a short space. His works are not only beautiful but also thought-provoking.

I would highly recommend Robert Frost's works of poetry to students from 5th grade through high school. They will not only enjoy the beauty of his language but also gain a deeper understanding of life and human nature.

This book is indeed a remarkable collection of poems penned by the renowned Robert Frost.

Each and every poem within its pages is distinct, possessing a certain weight and significance in its plot.

Moreover, his poems serve as a fascinating window into the very mind of Robert Frost.

By carefully analyzing his works, we are able to catch a glimpse of the various experiences and emotions that he has endured throughout his life.

However, despite the undeniable beauty and depth of his poetry, I must admit that this book earns a solid 7.8/10.

The reason for this score is that there is an undertone of depression that pervades many of the poems.

While this may add to the overall atmosphere and mood of the collection, it can also be a bit overwhelming at times.

Nonetheless, this book remains a must-read for any lover of poetry and a valuable addition to the literary canon.

I have long been acquainted with Frost's poetry. From my high school days to when Randall Thompson set Frost's poetry to music in Frostiana, I have read and sung a significant amount of it.

In a seminar class, we delved into "Home Burial". The professor disclosed that among all the poetry Frost composed and read aloud to audiences, "Home Burial" was too personal for public sharing. After examining the poem more closely, I was also deeply impressed by its profound insight and concise expression. As a pastor, this poem encapsulates the struggle that every married couple I have ever counseled experiences. By this, I do not mean in the exact circumstances and pain portrayed in the poem, but rather in the general and tragic manner in which couples fail to understand each other.

I encourage you to seek out this poem and read it. You will surely gain a new perspective on the complex nature of human relationships and the power of poetry to capture the essence of our experiences.

I thought this book was truly quite beautiful and peaceful to read.

My interest in naturist writing was burgeoning, and I firmly believe that Frost excels in this regard. His matter-of-fact way of writing about the world from his own unique perspective is simply captivating.

The book was serene and it brought me an abundance of joy, especially when his humor managed to come through.

The commentary by Mr. Untermeyer is also greatly appreciated. His introductions to the sets of poems, along with his insights into their backgrounds, gave me a much better understanding and a deeper appreciation for the work.

It is as if Frost's words paint a vivid picture of the natural world, and Untermeyer's commentary serves as a guiding light, helping me to navigate and fully embrace the beauty and depth within the poems.

This combination of Frost's writing and Untermeyer's insights makes this book a truly remarkable and enriching read.

Before I was actually into poetry, the only real poet I truly knew was Robert Frost. Of course, I loved "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" and "The Road Not Taken," along with whatever other poems of Frost's that are introduced to children through literature textbooks. So, I bought this book.

However, all I remember is that it was an enormous struggle to get through it. Every single poem seemed impossibly boring to me at that time. As a result, I haven't read it since then.

I suppose I should give it another try and reread it at some point. Maybe with a different perspective and a more mature understanding, I will be able to appreciate the beauty and depth of those poems that I failed to see before. After all, poetry has the power to touch our hearts and minds in ways we might not expect.

Initially, being familiar with a small number of Frost's works, I idealized him, equating him with such figures as Whitman and Poe. Has my opinion of the writer changed after getting acquainted with a wider range of his works? Certainly.

In which direction? The question is difficult. The first aspect that I paid attention to was that Frost's meter (and I often read in the original) is very unique. He is not characterized by the usual rhythmic structure and rhyming, but this does not make it worse. It is like the path from the beginning of a poem to its end. After walking along it, you will never stumble, but you will still not come to the place you were going to, and at the same time, there is no desire to go back at all.

In the poetry collection that I read, the works were grouped not in chronological order but by a common theme, so I cannot answer the question of which particular book made a greater impression on me. I liked the works where the narration is presented as a dialogue (and sometimes a polylogue), and the plot of such works was also interesting. I think that based on many of them, excellent paintings can be created. Especially attractive to me were the poems where the author's mood was very gloomy, which occupied the last pages. The author also fascinates the reader with his works about inanimate objects of human life and inanimate nature.

The weakest works for me were those about animals. Of course, not all of them, but many of them were united by this theme.

In general, it turned out not bad. It's not what I expected, but it's still like complaining about the rain on a summer day when you expected the sun.

I'm easily transported by these poems, now having lived in New England for a few years and experienced the landscape.

As I sit cozy and anticipate another snowy winter, they are the perfect companion. I have never been able to appreciate Frost this much before.

The only reason I give this book four stars instead of five is because I could've done without the editor's commentary.

Especially because it prefaces each poem, before I'm able to form my own impressions of them.

Every poem has such a strong identity intrinsically that I found myself skipping the extra words in between.

The poems will continue to resonate with me, and I'll be able to read into them even deeper next time.

"If one by one we counted people out
For the least sin, it wouldn't take us long
To get so we had no one left to live with.
For to be social is to be forgiving."

This passage from Frost's poem really makes me think. It's a powerful reminder that we should be more forgiving of others.

In a world where we often focus on the flaws and mistakes of those around us, this message is more important than ever.

By being more forgiving, we can build stronger relationships and create a more harmonious society.

I look forward to exploring more of Frost's poems and uncovering the wisdom and beauty within them.
