Reflections from my childhood
Honestly, I was never that crazy about school. If given the choice I might have been a 2nd grade drop out. There are a few things I remember well. One of them is this poem
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.
Sometimes just out of the blue that poem pops in my head. Amazing, considering I have trouble remembering my grocery list, phone number... etc.... I also will never forget To Kill a Mockingbird, Are you there God its me Margaret and the lyrics to Play that funky Music White Boy:)
