"a question" by robert frost. which question does frost raise in the poem? a voice said, look me in the starsand tell me truly, men of earthif all the soul-and-body scarswere not too much to pay for birth. 1. why are humans unable to fully appreciate all of nature's gifts? 2. is the physical and emotional pain humans suffer worth it? 3. why do humans die so easily from wounds and illnesses? 4. is it possible for humans to stop hurting one another?

peace, morning, sun glooming, sorrow, woe pardon’d, punished, more hence, talk, story. all of these three words have to do something with a depressed, regretful tone. woe is another word for misery, heartache, so all of these words are about unhappy feelings.

"it's more of an essay than story, but perhaps it is best described as a mood-piece: it uses a lot of musical imagery, not to mention sea imagery, religious imagery, and any other imagery that suits his purpose."
