Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening By Robert Frost - A Video Poem 

Robert Frost's poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" is a masterful example of the villanelle, a rigorous form that requires great skill with both rhyme and meter. In this poem, the rhythm of the villanelle is perfect for creating the emotional atmosphere of being alone in a quiet, snowy wood.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
By Robert Frost
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.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
This video poem is great to show in a classroom or other academic setting focused on American poetry.
