Answers
The theme of the poem 'Dust of snow' is very significant because it tells us how to take the opportunities that come our way without wasting time brooding over the past. Sometimes we face failure but if we brood over it and become upset, then we waste valuable time that could be used in preparation for our next test. The poet had been sitting under a hemlock tree wasting a lovely day because he was upset about something, but when a crow shook some dust of snow on him, he felt happy again and looked at things in a new light.
The message given by poet Robert Frost through the poem 'Dust of Snow' is a positive change can take place through negativity also. The little things can bring big change in life. Simple acts of kindness done can inspire others with enthusiasm and may bring huge change in their lives.
