福罗斯特对诗的绝妙理解-切勿逐形轻意境

“A POEM…BEGINS AS A LUMP IN THE THROAT, A SENSE OF WRONG, A HOMESICKNESS, A LOVESICKNESS. IT IS A REACHING-OUT TOWARD EXPRESSION; AN EFFORT TO FIND FULFILLMENT. A COMPLETE POEM IS ONE WHERE AN EMOTION FINDS THE THOUGHT AND THE THOUGHT FINDS THE WORDS.”

– Robert Frost writing to Louis Untermeyer in 1916
