Frost is a unique modern American poet. He sang the tune of the 20th century and adopted a poetic style close to traditional poetry. His poems are full of symbolic and philosophical meanings, and at the same time have strong local color. He expresses a symbolic meaning through nature, and images associated with loneliness, despair and death often appear in his poems, such as winter, snow, ice, frost and dead leaves. Therefore, Frost often uses withered roses and dried flowers as metaphors to contrast the lonely, sad and lonely inner world.
Frost's lyric poems mainly describe nature and farmers, especially the scenery of New England and farmers in the north, so they are called "New England pastoral poets". These poems are vivid and have strong appeal. Their language is simple, fresh and almost colloquial, but they reflect the brilliance of truth, full of philosophy of life and greatly enrich people's spiritual world. Therefore, it is welcomed by readers at all levels.
His Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Night, The Road Not Taken and Mending the Wall are all masterpieces that give people beautiful enjoyment and real enlightenment.
