Analysis: Robert Frost's "Into my Own"

[addy]

Yeah, it seems that to him the trees/forest represents a gateway into a different world and a different life... grass is greener and all that. It sounds a little to me like he wants to escape civilization and the laborous, inevitable life that comes with it (he talks of never wanting to run into open land and highways). Of course, the message could simply be more universal than that: just the longing for escape, and that feeling that you might belong somewhere else.
