A tremendous poem that affirms human brotherhood through a shared appreciation of the natural world. The simplicity of language and structure matches the sincerity of the underlying emotion. Frost's magic is to combine such simplicity with lines of real poetic beauty, for example -'But from sheer morning gladness at the brim' once read is always remembered, as is the poem as a whole.
