Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening By Robert Frost : MCQs and Explanation
Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
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
The
darkest evening of the year.
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,
And
miles to go before I sleep.
