As per usual my adoration for Robert Frost makes it hard for other poems to enter my mind. And this one is just fantastic. I find it popping into my head at random times and those are the moments I dream of snow covered trees in a forest where barely any sounds are audible that I could just get lost in...
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 sound's 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.
