Here in the poems life is portrayed in its basic foundation of growth and glorification. Poetry is not only an aesthetic way to portray a matter but also a path to portray out life-in-art. Harmony tries to establish life and human spirit in its own but saluting those immortal figures like, Robert Frost etc. as how they mingled gravity in simplicity in such unsurpassed poems, 'Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening' etc. And, art has its own art of appeal and expression which will ever inspire the pursuer to have its part.
