“Stars” was written by Robert Frost in 1913 and published in his first collection of poems, A Boy’s Will. The poem is structured fairly conventionally; it is composed of primarily iambs, and the rhyme scheme is as follows: abcbadedafgf.
As the title would suggest, the poem reads with a certain sense...
How countlessly they congregate
O'er our tumultuous snow,
Which flows in shapes as tall as trees
When wintry winds do blow!--
As if with keenness for our fate,
Our faltering few steps on
To white rest, and a place of rest
Invisible at dawn,--
And yet with neither love nor hate,
Those stars like some snow-white
Minerva's snow-white marble eyes
Without the gift of sight.
