THE ARMFUL, by ROBERT FROST Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: For every parcel I stood down to seize Last Line: And try to stack them in a better load Subject(s): Moving & Mobers | |||
For every parcel I stoop down to seize I lose some other off my arms and knees, And the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns, Extremes too hard to comprehend at. once Yet nothing I should care to leave behind. With all I have to hold with hand and mind And heart, if need be, I will do my best. To keep their building balanced at my breast. I crouch down to prevent them as they fall; Then sit down in the middle of them all. I had to drop the armful in the road And try to stack them in a better load. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A DREAM OF JULIUS CAESAR by ROBERT FROST A PECK OF GOLD by ROBERT FROST A SUMMER'S GARDEN by ROBERT FROST A WINTER'S NIGHT by ROBERT FROST CAESAR'S LOST TRANSPORT SHIPS by ROBERT FROST CLEAR AND COLDER; BOSTON COMMON by ROBERT FROST DOWN THE BROOK by ROBERT FROST EVENING IN A SUGAR ORCHARD by ROBERT FROST |
