Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Within These Woods

He taught poetry to us at

Amherst College, and one fine day

Professor Robert Frost said that

To nearby woods we'd make our way.

Which we did, and we all walked

Through sunlit trees and listened to

The master poet as he talked

On verses of these woods he'd do

Through all the seasons of the year,

And asked us all to share as well,

Poems of the woods we held dear.

This class sure cast a wondrous spell.

Promise to return, he could not keep,

As death took Frost to his final sleep.
