In this poen what does the poet compare ones life to? 1. An old man, going a lone highway,
2. Came at the evening cold and gray,
3. To a chasm, vast and deep and wide,
4. Through which was flowing a sullen tide.
5. The old man crossed in the twilight dim-
6. That sullen stream had no fears for him;
7. But he turned, when he reached the other side,
8. And built a bridge to span the tide.
9. "Old man," said a fellow pilgrim near,
10. "You are wasting strength in building here.
11. Your journey will end with the ending day;
12. You never again must pass this way.
13. You have crossed the chasm, deep and wide,
14. Why build you the bridge at the eventide?"
15. The builder lifted his old gray head.
16. "Good friend, in the path I have come," he said,
17. "There followeth after me today
18. A youth whose feet must pass this way.
19. This chasm that has been naught to me
20. To that fair-haired youth may a pitfall be.
21. He, too, must cross in the twilight dim;
22. Good friend, I am building the bridge for him."

Hurry i am on the semester test which theme is evident in this excerpt from robert frost's "mending wall"? but at spring mending-time we find them there. i let my neighbor know beyond the hill; and on a day we meet to walk the line and set the wall between us once again. we keep the wall between us as we go. to each the boulders that have fallen to each. and some are loaves and some so nearly balls we have to use a spell to make them balance: "stay where you are until our backs are turned! " we wear our fingers rough with handling them. oh, just another kind of out-door game, one on a side. it comes to little more: there where it is we do not need the wall: he is all pine and i am apple orchard. my apple trees will never get across and eat the cones under his pines, i tell him. he only says, “good fences make good neighbors." spring is the mischief in me, and i wonder if i could put a notion in his head: "why do they make good neighbors? isn't it where there are cows? but here there are no cows. before i built a wall i'd ask to know what i was walling in or walling out, and to whom i was like to give offence. . " a. the human desire for material gain b. the influence of financial constraints c. the positive effects of friendship d. the uncertain nature of human relations e. the futility of human yearning
