Luckily that isn't very often. Good use of the Frost poem. Thanks, N. I usually would have driven my own car, but I got too good a deal to pass up, and my car was not in good shape at the time of the trip, especially for the anticipated weather that week, as I recall. deLighting in your read, Daniel

We've had some forest fires north of me which have caused evacuations of thousands. 2 are now contained, but 1 is still out of control. The rain has slowed the spread. They don't compare with Australia's of late, the pictures of which circulated the web and were something to behold. I was not aware of either situation, Eric. Thanks for bringing these to our attention. Enjoyed the posting. ~ Merlin deLighting always in your two-scents of humor and wisdom, Daniel

If it's true as I believe that modern poemsters are much more immersed in the present than in the past, Frost can smile too at his collegues. When I first started writing paraphrase/tributes my hope was to stir interest in the past and I've had some success especially from those whose poetry I already most respect. As you know too, I feast on humor and irony! Nicely-dones are inadequate!!! Cheers, Ron jgdittier Thank you so much for the prodding, Ron. It means a great deal to this site and the other ones where you do the same. We share so much in common, my friend. deLighting in your participation, Daniel

	Wonderful Daniel! i enjoyed this. I wonder what Frost would have thought about our differing analysis of his poem. I wonder if he had no deep dark meaning, but was merely stopping by woods on a snowy evening! ha! Whatever the case, it is one of my favorites. (I don't like traveling either! Lu

	Non-Stop but Woods on a Summer Evening Whose roads these are I do not care for I but travel them to where I'd rather be; just stopping here to un-tank from my caffeine share... then steer leased Lancer without fear that into some deep ditch I'd veer... for auto-pilot's not a choice, not even cruise control this year, and I've no chauffeured black Rolls-Royce. I call to hear my honey's voice, relieve at every pause I must, play tapes of James Montgomery Boice. I'm glad there'll be no snow, but just some rain and wind… no frost, I trust… so back to Bridgeton now or bust ... headlong ... to nestle at her bust. _{© Daniel J Ricketts 24 June 2004, rev 26 July 2009 from Syracuse NY to Bridgeton, NJ}
