Position:Home>Poetry> Poetry help! Can you help me figure out the tone/mood of this poem?

Tone- the attitude that the writer takes toward the audience, the subject, or the character!.
Mood- a feeling that a literary work conveys to its readers!.
(definitions our teacher gave us)

Ok, so here's the poem:

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

Whose woods these are I think I know!.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow!.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year!.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake!.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake!.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep!.

By Robert Frost

P!.S!. when he says 'queer' he means strange!.
Thanks to all who help!! :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
