Robert Lee Frost (March 26, 1874 – January 29, 1963) was an American poet!. He is highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech!. His work frequently employed themes from the early 1900s rural life in New England, using the setting to examine complex social and philosophical themes!. A popular and often-quoted poet, Frost was honored frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for PoetryWww@QuestionHome@Com

Frost was considered to be the Wordsworth of America!. He was, like Wordsworth, a nature poet, but unlike Wordsworth who celebrated Nature at the centre with man at the periphery,
Frost celebrated or exalted man with Man at the centre and Nature at the periphery!.
If you've listened to or read his famous poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" there he says in the penultimate lines as follows:
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
BUT I HAVE PROMISES TO KEEP!.!.!.!.
This highlights the importance he gives to Man and his place in the universe!.

To sum it up, He was practising, even decades ago, the American Dream in its nascent stage!!!

I hope tat answers your question!.!.
