    Poem Commentary

     this poem is about a Childs Death.

    The reaper

     A Dark whisper in the night

    Shadows surround my room

    Who are you I said

    Demons, spirits, wraths, fairies

    Have you come to take my soul?

    Are you my imagination?

    Are you things spouted out of stories I have read

    Who are you?

     

    Then I was struck

    Felt the pain of a thousand knifes hit me

    I feel off of my bed and felt the cold of death

    It had come to take me away.

    It a bout a childs death. It comes sudden and hard.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
