g,” “The Road Not Taken,” which happens to be one of my favorites also. “The Oven Bird,” “Once by the Pacific,” Acquainted with the Night,” and “The Night Light.” All of these poems have to do with nature or refer to nature within them.Another one of my favorite poems by Robert Frost is “Fire and Ice,” which is a very short yet effective poem.“Some say the world will end in fire,Some say in ice.From what I’ve tasted of desireI hold with those who favor fire.But if I had to perish twice,I think I know enough of hateTo say that for destruction iceIs also greatAnd would suffice.”This poem is extremely unique in the pattern and metaphor that it holds. It has a very negative view of the end of the world. Frost argues within the poem whether the world will end in fire or ice. He says that if he had to die twice, that ice would suffice because it causes destruction also and is more in the taste of hate. The rhyme pattern in this poem is A-B-A-A-B-C-B-C-B. It only has three different rhyming sounds. The two main ones are “fire-desire” and “ice-suffice.”Robert Frost creates many nature related poems with different outcomes. Two of the poems that I analyzed pertain to winter. The first, "Desert Places" is a sad poem about loneliness and lost enthusiasm. "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" is a rather uplifting poem about enjoying simple things in life. Frost seems to draw upon his experiences from living in rural New England and converts those experiences into beautiful poetry.
