Answer:
Dust of Snow
The poem "Dust of Snow" is a beautiful short poem with a deep meaning that is written by the famous poet "Robert Frost". At the beginning of this poem the poet was in a sad and depressed mood. Here the poet has used two things to express his mood.One is the crow and another is is the hemlock tree.The two agents of the nature are considered as ill omen and inauspicious.They can also be used to describe the negative thinking of the society. but when the crow shook down on the hemlock tree and dust of snow fell on him, his mood was changed. He thought some part of his day was saved. So, here the central idea of the poem lies that one may have the worst day or time of it's life but a little thing can make it quite amazing. Sometimes, small things have larger effect in life. There are various negative things in our society. But, we shall overcome them with positive thoughts. Also here the dust of Snow implies the healing power of the nature.
