Robert Frost said many times throughout his life that all men share a common bond. In his poem “The Tuft of Flowers” he analyzes the potential of such a bond, in first person. Frost turns an everyday common job, into discovering a common bond with another laborer. The author uses a comparison between aloneness with a sense of understanding to demonstrate his theme of unity between two men. In another one of Frost’s poems “Birches” he imagines walking through the woods looking at all the trees, and

There once lived a fellow named Robert Frost. In the year 1874, Robert's life began in San Francisco. He lived there for eleven years with his family until his father died. When that happened, Robert, his mother, and little sister all moved to Massachusetts. There, Robert went to high school and graduated top of his class.

between themselves and the field itself. Due to this interaction, Robert Frost and Jean Toomer write about how workers seek to communicate with others in similar situations as themselves in order to gain comfort. They argue that workers in any kind of labor in the fields feel the loneliness that can only be relieved not verbally, but through fictional interactions between the worker and another worker. In Robert Frost’s “The Tuft of Flowers,” the unnamed speaker finds his fictional interaction by accident
The Deeper Meaning of Frost’s Tuft of Flowers Robert Lee Frost published his first book of poems entitled A Boy's Will in 1913.
