2 poems 2 Poems “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost begins with admiration of the beautiful and tranquil woods. As the poems continues, it becomes clear that it is man, traveler on a horse drawn carriage stopping to see the beautiful woods. As the poem goes on there is a major change and the poem goes from calm and pleasant to rushed and ick. The man says that he must go because he had duties and obligations to do before he can rest. The second poem is “The Elk” by Hugh McNamar. At the start of a poem, a family enters their cabin to find that it has recently been used. The place is trashed with cans in corners and the fence has been vandalized. The family goes out to the back porch to find a dead animal hanging, twisting from a rafter. This animal has not been bled not gutted and the family is upset and disgusted. There is an overall creepy feeling. When the family returns later in the summer and in their inability to sleep, they hear the creaking of the Elk on the rafter. poem, reader, woods, elk, family, evening, words, stopping, snowy, out, goes, poems, sleep, poachers, man, makes, frost, feeling, calm, before, been, animal, very, two, tranquil, think, serene, seems, second, rafter, one, much, longer, go, first, dead, creepy, creaking, close, bold, back, wind, summer, soft, snow, sentences, sentence, rest, recently, quiet
