I found a piece of paper filled with my writing when I was arranging my books. The words in the paper were written by myself when in college. These words also reminded me of the English Poetry course. Mr. Pu asked us to choose one of the poems written in English and then rewrite it according to its main idea. Such work reflected my past college life
Stopping by Woods On a Snowy Evening （By Robert Frost ）
On a snowy evening, my little horse and I stayed in a forest with a purpose of further visiting this forest. Several years ago, I had visited here in a cold weather and the owner of this forest lived with my horse and I for a whole week. The owner's name was Simon. Simon was a strong man with an excellent skill in hunting. He liked serving me with potatoes and beans. If he had hunted a rabbit one day, he would cook it well and asked me to share it together. To my great disappointment, the owner of this forest wasn't in at this moment. His house was in another village beside the forest. I made a guess that he was in his house now. In the following seconds, I felt lonely and had nothing to do except to wait and see the beautiful snowy scene around me.
Maybe my loving horse was very hungry but I couldn't find any food for him. My little horse felt lonely too, because he also couldn't find any farmhouse in this forest. It was darker and darker, the snowy evening was much colder than before. The woods and frozen lake were just in front of me, all of these were in silent. I sat beside an old pine, falling into deep thought. At this moment, I thought of my family who were living in the South. What were they doing? Maybe they were thinking of me too, maybe they went to sleep with sweet dreams. In their dreams, the members of our family were talking, singing and dancing happily.
My lovely little horse shook his small bells, the bell ring brought me into reality. Oh, this forest was not my destination, we had to leave. The wind blew the snowflake, I could only hear the sound of the wind. Before my little horse and I left for the next place, I had a look at the scene of this forest again.
How lovely,dark and deep the woods were! Suddenly I realized there was a special relation between the forest and me. So long as I went into this forest, I turned into silent, there were just the nice old days in my mind. Now my little horse and I felt tired and wanted to go sleep. but we had walked for miles without having a rest.
