Frost is very interested in the activities of everyday life, because it is this side of humanity that is the most "real" to him. Even the most basic act in a normal day can have numerous hidden meanings that need only to be explored by a poetic mind. For example, in the poem "Mowing," the simple act of mowing hay with a scythe is transformed into a discussion of the value of hard work and the traditions of the New England countryside. Conversely, death is painted as being as natural as life. In “Out, Out” Robert Frost sees death as something to not grieve over, but a passing moment in time just like mowing hay or greeting a neighbor at the Mending Wall.
