It has been said that many times that all men have a common bond or a thread that joins them together. "The Tuft of Flowers- by Robert Frost which was published in 1913 is an excellent example of such a proverb.
Robert Frost was born in San Francisco on March 26, 1874 and he died in Boston on January 29, 1963. He was one of America's leading 20 twentieth Century poets often associated with rural New England. After his fathers death in 1885 his family moved to Massachusetts at the age of eleven. He enrolled in Dartmouth College in 1892 and later Harvard, but never earned a formal degree. Frost drifted through a string of occupations after leaving school, working as a teacher, cobbler, and editor of the Lawrence Sentinel. His first professional poem, "My Butterfly,"" was published on November 8, 1894, in the New York newspaper The Independent. .
In 1895, Frost married Elinor Miriam White who was a major inspiration of his poetry until her death in 1938. The couple moved to England in 1912, and it was abroad that Frost met and was influenced by such contemporary British poets as Edward Thomas, Rupert Brooke, and Robert Graves. .
While in England, Frost also established a friendship with the poet Ezra Pound, who helped to promote and publish his work. By the time Frost returned to the United States in 1915, he had published two full-length collections, A Boy's Will and North of Boston, and his reputation was established. By the nineteen-twenties, he was the most celebrated poet in America, and with each new book he published, his fame and honors (including four Pulitzer Prizes) increased. Robert Frost lived and taught for many years in Massachusetts and Vermont, and died on January 29, 1963 in Boston (Frost).
I went to turn the grass once after one.
Who mowed it in the dew before the sun.
.
The dew was gone that made his blade so keen.
Before I came to view the leveled scene.
I looked for him behind an isle of trees;.
