Mending Wall by Robert Frost.

Mending Wall 
by Robert Frost.

                  
               " Mending Wall" is a philosophical poem of Robert frost in which he comments on the secretive attitude being of present time has became a castle. He does not want to come out of that secretive attitude and he would not allow any other person to know about it this secretive attitude of modern man is brought to light in the present poem.

               The subject matter of the poem is repair at the wall between the house of a poet and his neighbor . the poet is not in taller of having a wall between his house and the neighbors house. But his neighbor is instating on having a wall the poet finds present of some unseen force and element which does not like the war that is the reason why the wall is having gapes and creches in it. The implied meaning is that God does not want in man shoud remain aware and alop from the other man. But he neighbor of the poet is of different opinion, he believes that their must be a war because "Good fences make good neighbors". The neighbors prefers to repair that wall again and again because he would like to keep distance from the poet. the poet himself with an or chard of apple and his neighbors with the forest of pine trees it suggests that the nature of the poet is different from that of neighbor. His neighbor puts stone on the wall and arranges those stone with a good balanced so that those stone may not like it because he dose not want any wall between his house and his neighbors house.

                 The present poem is a sarcastic remark on human relation in modern times. the attitude of modern man has became so strange and secretive that he does not want so share any matter or object of his own with other. he would like to keep a wall around him and such a war that their may not be any iteration between him and others. this attitude of modern man is highlighting in the present poem.
