This is Robert when he was old.
| THERE’S a patch of old snow in a corner | |
| That I should have guessed | |
| Was a blow-away paper the rain | |
| Had brought to rest. | |
| It is speckled with grime as if | 5 |
| Small print overspread it, | |
| The news of a day I’ve forgotten— | |
If I ever read it.OpinionThe message that he is trying to get across in this poem is that he tells that winter will not last long and before you know it will be spring. This poem made me chose this because it had showed a valuble meaning because it tells me that spring will come soon if you wait. In this poem since it was the old days I dont think that people had delivered Newspapers in the Winter because it was to cold. I would relate this poem to me because I don't like winter that much because I can not go outside and it is cold in the winter, also I am eager for Spring or Summer just like in the poem. I think that Robert was happy when he had wrote this poem because winter had just gone away and I would feel that way to.
