In his “Snowy Evening”
Robert Frost says –
“But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep”
In our Shiny morning
We laymen say –
“But this life so vulnerable to reap,
let me sleep well before I leap”
In our Sunny day
We laymen say –
“But this life is unconquerable, so steep,
let me sleep well and give up.
In our Shadowed Evening
We laymen say –
“But this life is no more to be lived, no hope
let me sleep my last and end up.
We find most of us in last three clauses!
When will we find ourselves in the first?
Resting will rust you
Struggles will strengthen you.
Let this be a chorus from all of us
Let this stimulus of melody melt our laziness
“But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep”
