Simple Man Personal Life

Yet the future can be vaguely foretold in a dark and simple poem. Robert Lee Frost was no doubt a magnificent poet. As the saying goes, to be great is to be misunderstood. His varied poetry reflected his life, because he used his life as inspiration. We find Frosts spectrum ranging from simple observances to profound philosophical assumptions in his persona...
