As one of the most iconic American poets, Robert Frost’s work has stood the test of time. Though born in California, Frost moved to New England at age eleven and came to identify himself as a New Englander. That self-identification would become a staple of his later works as he would invest “in the New England terrain” and make use of the “simplicity of his images” (Norton Anthology, p. 727) accompanied by uncomplicated writing to give his poems a more natural feel. Frost’s poems were generalized by certain types: nature lyrics, which described a scene or event, dramatic narratives or generalizations, and humorous or sardonic works. His widely anthologized poem “Fire and Ice” falls between the categories of nature lyrics while also being somewhat…

Should mere suggestion prove insufficient, Frost can send a surge of energy into the mind of another person, overwhelming their body with her consciousness and allowing her to take possession of their faculties for a limited amount of time while leaving her own unattended. Frost can 'suggest' to any amount of minds within a certain radius of herself--generally 60 miles--though such a feat can and will become taxing. Mere mental manipulations are not the full extent of Emma Frost's abilities, and while the above abilities are quite useful they do not serve Frost in every situation. In the event that Frost must act quickly in her defense, she is capable of channeling a bolt of pure psychic energy from her brain to the brain of another person.…

Ignoring someone’s importance or ability is not a good concept to me. But then again, in the poem “Chicago”, written by Robert Frost, Chicago is like that. In fact, the characteristic of Chicago seems to be violent, fierce, and cocky. Once upon a time, I read of a man in the bible who was so rugged; no one was ever to mess with him. Due to his body mass and capacity, he was not afraid of any harm that were formed against him.…
Though society admires the idea of freedom, it has its limits. Throughout history, humankind has taken comfort in believing that there is a great force ultimately controlling us. This idea helps up trust everything that happens has a purpose, even if we can’t understand it. Robert Frost highlights this side of freedom throughout his poem Design. In Design, Frost argues that there are situations or circumstances that are simply too coincidental for some greater being not to be designing it.…
