Hidden Meaning of Mending Wall
The Hidden Meaning of Mending Wall Mending Wall is a poem written by the Robert Frost. ... The hidden meaning of the wall is the manifestation of the emotional barricade that separates two people. ... Every time they meet they have a hard time communicating, but they still manage to repair the wall; the barricade between them. However, their emotions, especially the ‘I’ voice try to get the boulders off balance so the wall can be leveled with the ground. ... The wall can be taken in the physical sense as well as the poet’s figment of imagination. The wall is a restriction something that ‘walls in’ and ‘walls out’ things. Something which produces disturbances in the daily routine and that ‘something’ that wants it down is ‘I’ voice will to attain freedom; freedom to explore the other side of the wall. But as we read on we find that there is ‘something’ that does not want the wall down and this is the tradition which has been followed generations upon generations by the poet’s neighbor who without looking at it logically blindly follows it.
