Spring Pools by Robert Frost

Robert Frost- Robert Lee Frost is a highly regarded
 for his realistic depictions of rural life and using 
them to examine complex social and philosophical 
themes.






Spring Pools
These pools that, though in forests, still reflect
The total sky almost without defect,
And like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
Will like the flowers beside them soon be gone,
And yet not out by any brook or river,
But up by roots to bring dark foliage on
.
The trees that have it in their pent-up buds
To darken nature and be summer woods---
Let them think twice before they use their powers
To blot out and drink up and sweep away
These flowery waters and these watery flowers
From snow that melted only yesterday.



Analysis
The spring poos is a beautiful poem that depicts effects
 of how previous generation effects younger generation
and subdue their advancement
the poet compare children with  flowers  around pure
 spring pool from which they absorb purity of thoughts and
 their ambitions with defect less sky.
but then frost says that their purity will soon vanish
 not by any external calamity but due to adults
    who will darken the pure pool with their pasted
 ideals and will curb their ambitions with their actions
then Frost questions the adults who have it engraved
 in their minds to destroy future of their younger
 generation without any prior thought to think
 again is it right to do so.
