Yes. Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening. Another good example.

without a doubt Birches, and Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening are your best bets.

Quote:
The question these poems ask seems a rhetorical one, allowing introspection into ones life.and then, more or less, an affirmation of ones own life. Then again, I could be hallucinating... Just wanted to add(upon reading the original question again) that this affirmation is indeed an answer.

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice. From what I've tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate To say that for destruction ice Is also great And would suffice. -- Robert Frost *no real advice here, but this poem doesn't seem to fit the typical Robert Frost Poetry type, Maybe that's why I like it...

The answer to this is Yes. Its up to you to do the work and read some poems and get your own meaning from them. Fire and Ice is a great poem, crackprogram
