That’s interesting that you should bring that up Curt. I’ve been reading about that RF poem and how misunderstood it was when it came out. And the thing I found the most interesting is that Frost corrected people about what his “meaning” was until it came to Kennedy, and in that case he said (something like) we all have our own interpretations of poetry. Which made me think that maybe Frost wasn’t really the person that I assumed he was based on his work, we are all such complicated creatures. In the end, I still like that particular poem and feel free to think it means whatever I want it to mean. 🙂

Absolutely. The power of poetry is in its interpretation and in making it relevant to ourselves.

Still have the problem of only being able to readily see your posts when you like one of mine. So weird.
