This poem is one of the most famous poems that Robert Frost has ever written about weather. This poem uses weather in a way that it is hard to understand; he uses weather as the source and center of his poem. He uses weather as it being scornful, tragic, and terrible. But, in the second paragraph, his use of weather becomes more happy-like and it is not scornful after all. Also, in the second paragraph, he mentions the after effect of the storm and the winds that blow on and on and on. In the end and in the fourth paragraph, the feeling of the weather is nice, sunny, and grateful, but it mentions that the rain is his love which means he loves the rain. The poets’ knowledge of weather enhances the poem because if he didn’t know anything about weather, he would have not been able to make this poem about the flowing of weather and he would not be able to put in the weather patterns that he saw. The poet talks about rainy weather, stormy weather, and windy weather. Also, it shows the aftermath of a big storm and he also describes the scenery after the storm.
This poem without the mention of weather would be like a car without an engine, it would fall apart. This poem without weather would be like a human without a heart and a brain, dead. This poem has to have weather in it to make it the same. Literary techniques that are used to further improve this poem in regard to weather is that he uses personification many times talking about clouds, rain, and sleet. Also, it sometimes used alliteration with wind, rain, and clouds. My knowledge about weather was vast, but because of this poem it has become endless (hyperbole). This poem describes what a storm is like it gave me the knowledge of knowing what was going through the poets mind when he wrote this, how he described it, and lastly what did he know prior to the beginning of his poem.
