I don’t know how qualified I feel to judge a book of poetry, as this is only the second volume I’ve read (aside from children’s collections). But I enjoyed reading these and recognized a couple of them from a picture book biography I read with the girls.
I started this book off by reading a book that combined several of Frost’s poetry books. I finished this one, and read several poems from the next (North of Boston). I decided to pause on that collection for now and move on to something different.

ugh Robert frost, where have u been all my life?
but in all honestly I've been in awe, this is the first poetry collection Robert frost ever published so if I gave it 5 stars HOW MUCH BETTER WOULD THE REST BE??
my little poet heart is about to be filled with so much joy really the rest of his collection

Yet again ... I have to say poetry is not my thing. However I continue to explore the great poet in history in an attempt to learn. But this isn’t it

Frost is always a joy, there is a reason he is so well known.

Even in this first book, Frost's voice seems mature and quite clear. It has a few of my favorite of his poems, though they are not his most famous, including Revelation and A Line Storm Song. He makes beautiful images, working through much of the same material (falling leaves, frost, rain, walks in the countryside), and he has a wonderful capacity with meter and rhyme. They almost never feel forced in any way, and seem to be as much a part of nature as the nature he describes.
