Alrighty, this poem is being reserved for Carolynnn, and here is the excerpt - talk about getting the best out of Frost! (one word added in []'s to not create pronoun confusion within the excerpt.
She'll be on the forum soon i think!!
==================8<==============================
THE IMPULSE
It was too lonely for her there, And too wild,
She was free,
With a song only to herself On her lips.
She strayed so far she scarcely heard When he called her—
And [she] didn’t answer—didn’t speak— Or return.
He never found her, though he looked Everywhere,
Sudden and swift and light as that The ties gave, And he learned of finalities Besides the grave.

I don't understand, she's a friend of yours so you're reserving this poem for her? If so then the more the merrier, I say welcome aboard wherever she is
