"DUST OF SNOW" is a eight lines poem written by Robert Frost.
This poem conveys poets message to his readers about finding something positive in the negative things.
The poem is nothing more than a snapshot of a trivial event concerning a crow, a tree, snow and a human being.
The rhyme scheme of the poem is ABAB.
The poem has been divided into two stanzas having 4 lines each.
this little poem has remained popular because it juxtaposes two fundamentals - human complexity and animal simplicity in such a compact and symbolic form.
In the first stanza of the poem we are introduced to three important things firstly there is a crow which is black and often considered as the symbol of death then there is the dust of snow and the hemlock tree.
The poet is walking under the tree .It is probably winter, there is snow on the tree, an evergreen pine called a hemlock, and a crow has happened to send some snow dust down on the man.
The word 'shook' indicates that the crow is shivering on the tree.The poet here cleverly uses all these images to show that his day was quite bad.
The speaker, because of the snow dust falling on him, finds himself partially relieved his day just got a whole lot better .
So the first stanza flows into the second which is the more intimate part of the poem as the speaker begins to confirm the change of mood.
In the second stanza the poet feels good when the snow falls on him. He is quite happy as he feels that he has saved his latter part of the day.
The poem thus gives the message that one should never loose hope.
One should always have faith in themselves and one should always try to remain optimistic.
