After Apple Picking

The Poet of this poem , " After Apple Picking", is Robert Frost, He was an American Poet from ( March 26,1874-Jan 29,1963) . His work frequently drew inspiration from Rural life in New England, Frost was highly honored during his life time, receving four Puiltzer Prizes.
Although he is commonly associated with New England, Frost was born in San Francisco To Isabelle Moodie, Of Scottish ancestry, and William Prescott Frost,Jr., A Descend ant of a Devonshire Frost who had sailed to New Hempshire in 1634. His Father was a former Teacher turned into a newspaper man, a hard drinker, a gambler, a harsh disciplinarian; he had passion for politics also.

2) Body:- After Apple Picking , written in 1914. This Poem describes RoberFrost's sleeping condition..
Actually it is a very simple meaning..
The Poet was collecting Apples from The Trees and filling them in the barrels.. while doing so,since morning to evening , he was very exhausted and wanted to sleep.. This Meaning is very much refered to as the life-span of a person.. ( A person is usally tired and exhausted when he is old and wish death.).. So basically Robert Frost meant he wanted to die and was tired of his life..
While collecting when he was sleppy, he still had many apples remaing to be collected..( This means that he still had many many disires/aimbitions/hopes to be fullfilled and to accquire, but then he is very much tired and slpeey of collecting and filling them in the barrel..)
He also says that way of looking to the world has changed a lot when he is looking through the ice.. he actually means that when he was a child , he couldnt understand many things.. his way of seeing things was very childish and had no expirience, but then as the ice kept on melting ( Which is reffered to he growing up, started to see things more clearly, his expirence started to grow and things began to be clear..)He then says that the Ice Fell from his hand and he broke it which I dont know the meaning of...\
In orther part he says that he is very sleppy and then atlast sleeps, but he is not able to differintiate between his Sleep and Reality... he dreams that HUGE magnified apples comming towards him and they are about 10 thousands of them.. he sees them fully harvested which is very much being over joyed by him...
however this means that his desires starts to get fullfilled, in the life after,this world which is often refered to heavens.... which he says in the 1st stanza of the poem
