"Stopping by woods on a snowy Evening" (poem critique)

“Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”

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 fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse 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 sounds the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.


            The poem is about the author's journey and while  he is traveling he get tired and the darkness cover the place and then he saw an old wood place where he can sleep all night. That wood place is owned by the person he knows he is not worried about seeing him there by the owner. it feels like his on a very cold night there is a snow falling covering the wood place.

             He bring with him a horse and he think that the horse maybe wondering where he could stay there because there is no farmhouse near to that place.

            The horse shake his bell that makes the author think that the horse is maybe asking why the author bring him to that place. It was so peaceful there that he could just hear the wind and the falling snowflakes.

            In this stanza the author is enjoying staying there because he found a beautiful place. But he has many obligations to make. though he wanted to stay he must leave that place and go back to his journey.

           My interpretation is in every journey of our life there is a time that we get tired and feels like we wanted to have a rest. We can, but we must not quit our journey and go on fulfilling those promises that we make.
