  Decisions: Often we base them on something other than 'a good choice' or ' the better way'.

I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence:
- Mindy Worman on 23 Nov 10
  
  A sigh. A sad sigh? A happy sigh? I love that he doesn't say. Only the indication of the deep feeling.

My favorite Frost poem. It's required for our students, but I often wish they would more deeply realize how much it points to their own lives, and the decisions they make.

Although it's a well known poem, I simply had to use this particular Frost poem. It speaks to my soul. Who hasn't made decisions in life, wondering even at the time what the end result would be?

Robert Frost poem

shared by Emily Miller on 15 Nov 10 - No Cached

- Emily Miller on 15 Nov 10
  
  I think Frost is writing about how life is not always perfect. There are definitely wonderful, "gold" moments throughout life. They do not even have to be decadent moments to be perfect. For example, "green" appears as "gold" and a simple leaf is "a flower." It does not last - "only so an hour" before "Eden" sinks. However, dawn does not turn to night but to day. The perfect moment may have passed, the paradise may be gone, but there is still light.

I graduated with a B.F.A. in creative writing at the University of Evansville, and poetry was always the most difficult form of writing for me to understand. However, poetry also became the most beautiful form of writing I studied once I began to understand it a little better. This particular poem was one of the first poems I read at UE that really evoked emotion from me. It's not the happiest poem (what poem about the death of a worker boy by blood loss from losing a hand could be happy?), but the most important thing to get from this poem is the feelings the narrator is trying to convey.
