Robert Frost

Robert  Frost

With vigor,  intense lines  did exhaust--

His road not taken was backbreaking

That poet grew old   from spine aching.

Frost is fascination, esp. for me, as I attended the college he did...and remember his stirring poetry reading at John F. Kennedy's Presidential inauguration back in the 1960's...and oh, that road not taken... :) gw
