As one of the most celebrated and popular American poets in the 20th century, Robert Frost created a lot of poems that are frequently quoted and widely loved. In his poetry, Frost’s pastoral poems are the most distinctive, therefore winning him the reputation of “the pastoral poet in the industrialized society”. His pastoral poems primarily explored that the beauty of nature was the real beauty, and this beauty could purify men’s souls and bring sublimation to men’s spirits.
