    “Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening”     Whose woods these are I think I know.  His house is in the village though;  He will not see me stopping here  To watch his woods fill up with snow.    My little horse must think it queer                    5  To stop without a farmhouse near  Between the woods and frozen lake  The darkest evening of the year.    He gives his harness bells a shake  To ask if there is some mistake.                     10  The only other sound’s the sweep  Of easy wind and downy flake

    Not a cloud sailed on that particular Sunday evening. The climbers‚ John and Mary had reached the tops of the cliffs as the sun was setting. They looked over the town to one side and the water on the other. The whole scene appeared strikingly beautiful in the late evening light‚ for it was sunset. Their hearts began to fill with emotions as the vast open sky started to turn from a baby blue to an autumn red‚ the clouds changed from cotton white to a flaming yellow orange giving
