My guide had left, I walked alone,

deeper into a great unknown.

Trodden a road less traveled,

filled with overgrown obstacles.

 

I came upon a snowy clearing,

having no idea what I was nearing.

I walked up to the single lone pine,

in the center of a step incline.

 

As my steps crunched in the snow,

I stated in awe of an afterglow.

A specter appeared before my eyes,

yet I did not run and hide.

 

For this man I knew all too well, he was Robert Frost as close as I could tell.
