1.Read the poem carefully * 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 filled up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farm-house 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 downyflake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before Isleep,
And miles to go before Isleep.
Robert Frost
