Wind and Window Flower

LOVERS, forget your love,

 And list to the love of these,

 She a window flower,

 And he a winter breeze.

 When the frosty window veil

 Was melted down at noon,

 And the cagèd yellow bird

 Hung over her in tune,

 He marked her through the pane,

 He could not help but mark,

 And only passed her by,

 To come again at dark.

 He was a winter wind,

 Concerned with ice and snow,

 Dead weeds and unmated birds,

 And little of love could know.

 But he sighed upon the sill,

 He gave the sash a shake,

 As witness all within

 Who lay that night awake.

 Perchance he half prevailed

 To win her for the flight

 From the firelit looking-glass

 And warm stove-window light.

 But the flower leaned aside

 And thought of naught to say,

 And morning found the breeze

 A hundred miles away.

The poem in which had my attention the most by Robert Frost was "Wind and Window Flower". By reading the poem he really made me believe that the flower in the window and the wind had feelings. By starting off with "Lovers, forget your love..." he caught my attention, because I am in a very loving, long term relationship. It seemed like he could be describing a break up to make up type of relationship between two. Throughout the poem Frost used Visual Imagery allowing me as a reader to actually feel the wind and see the flower in the window. I also witnessed personification in the poem, he gave the two objects feelings; "and only passed her by...".
