“I have been one acquainted with the night.I have walked out in rain - and back in rain.I have outwalked the furthest city light.I have looked down the saddest city lane.I have passed by the watchman on his beatAnd dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.”

American poet and educator of the early-to-mid 20th century, Frost is best known for his rural New England settings and precise, often ironic verse. His work explores themes of isolation, nature, and human struggle, with collections like *A Boy’s Will* and *North of Boston* cementing his reputation.
