Literary Critism: Robert Frost's poem are very symbolic and usually metaphoric. In the poem "My Novemeber Guest", his poem is stating that real things are much more beautiful than imaginative things. Nature in particular. Frost also uses irony frquently in his poetry.
My November Guest by: Robert Frost My Sorrow, when she's here with me, Thinks these dark days of autumn rain Are beautiful as days can be; She loves the bare, the withered tree; She walks the sodden pasture lane. Her pleasure will not let me stay. She talks and I am fain to list: She's glad the birds are gone away, She's glad her simple worsted grey Is silver now with clinging mist. The desolate, deserted trees, The faded earth, the heavy sky, The beauties she so truly sees, She thinks I have no eye for these, And vexes me for reason why. Not yesterday I learned to know The love of bare November days Before the coming of the snow, But it were vain to tell her so, And they are better for her praise.
