    From the Robert Frost Interpretive Trail, one of his briefer poems, “Nothing Gold Can Stay” comes to mind at least twice a year in New England: when spring turns the buds to a lovely green gold, and in the autumn when those same leaves fall and carpet the ground. — Ripton, Vermont

  • Photo of Robert Frost's Kitchen Table
    The kitchen table at which Robert Frost wrote many of his poems. It is thought that Frost tuned his ear to the Yankee vernacular at this shared-line phone. Frost farmhouse. — Derry, New Hampshire

    I’d like to go by climbing a birch tree,
    And climb black branches up a snow-white trunk
    Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more,
    Robert Frost
