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.
Overview
Frost wrote the poem in June 1922 at his
house in Shaftsbury, Vermont. He had
been up the entire night writing the long
poem "New Hampshire" and had finally
finished when he realized morning had
come. He went out to view the sunrise
and suddenly got the idea for "Stopping
by Woods on a Snowy Evening".[2] He
wrote the new poem "about the snowy
evening and the little horse as if I'd had a
hallucination" in just "a few minutes
without strain".[3]

woods are not, as the Lathem edition
would have it (with its obtuse
emendation of a comma after the
second adjective in line 13), merely
'lovely, dark, and deep.' Rather, as
Frost in all the editions he supervised
intended, they are 'lovely, [i.e.] dark
and deep'; the loveliness thereby
partakes of the depth and darkness
which make the woods so ominous."
