PERIL OF HOPE by ROBERT FROST

Poem Explanation Poet Analysis

First Line: IT IS RIGHT IN THERE
Last Line: For a night of frost
Subject(s): FEAR; FROST;
It is right in there
Betwixt and between
The orchard bare
And the orchard green,
When the boughs are right
In a flowery burst
Of pink and white,
That we fear the worst.
For there's not a clime
But at any cost
Will take that time
For a night of frost.
