whose woods are these i think i know
his house is in the village though
but he'll not see me stopping here
to watch his woods fill up with snow

my littile horse must think it queer 
to stop without a famhouse near
between the woods and the  frozen lake
darkest evening of the year

he gives his harness bells a shake 
toask if there is some mistake
the only other sounds the sweep 
of easy wind and downy flake

the woods are lovelydark and deep
but i have promises to keep
and miles to go before i sleep
and miles to go before i sleep

Answer:

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.

Explanation:

The speaker thinks about who owns the woods that he or she is passing through, and is fairly sure of knowing the landowner. However, the owner's home is far away in the village, and thus he is physically incapable of seeing the speaker pause to watch the snow fall in the forest.

The speaker thinks his or her horse must find it strange to stop so far from any signs of civilization. Indeed, they are surrounded only by the forest and a frozen lake, on the longest night of the year.

The horse shakes the bells on its harness, as if asking if the speaker has made a mistake by stopping. The only other sound besides the ringing of these bells is that of the wind and falling snowflakes, which the speaker likens to the feathers of goose down.

The speaker finds the woods very alluring, drawn both to their darkness and how vast and all-encompassing they seem. However, the speaker has obligations to fulfill elsewhere. Thus, though he or she would like to stay and rest, the speaker knows there are many more miles to go before that will be possible.
