My Favorite Poem - "Home Burial"

“Home Burial” is my favorite poem because Frost expressed very strong feelings in simple, easy-to-understand language. Frost set the tone by describing the situation through dialogue and using a free verse format. The wife, Amy, is grieving the loss of their son, and she resents her husband because he does not seem to be grieving in the same way. Throughout the poem, the husband's and wife’s marriage seems to fall apart over the loss of their son.
