Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
Robert Frost
In Memory of W.B.Yeats is Auden's earnest, direct and mainly expression of his personal
feelings of grief and sorrow at the death of the great poet.It is among the more represen-
tative and memorable poems of the earlier phase of Auden's development as a poet.It
reveals his social and human concern, contains beautiful descriptions of the landscape
in winter, and conveys his views on poetry.
I liked this poem very much because it belongs to my sir w.b.yeats whom I love a lot. I miss you Yeats. You are my father of poetry. Lots of love to you
