asked why he so frequently recited his poems from memory. With typical wit  he replied: "If
they won't stick to me  I won't stick to them." Remarkably among the modern poets  his poems
"stick" to the reader: "Mending Wall " with its famous invocation of the rural maxim "Good
fences make good neighbors" "The Road Not Taken " about the beguiling possibilities of life
"Birches " which reminds us that "One could do worse than be a swinger of birches "Stopping by
Woods on a Snowy Evening " with its unforgettable final line: "And miles to go before I sleep."
