        "  A POLINDROME POEM"

Doppelganger | By James A. Lindon

Entering the lonely house with my wife
I saw him for the first time
Peering furtively from behind a bush —
Blackness that moved,
A shape amid the shadows,
A momentary glimpse of gleaming eyes
Revealed in the ragged moon.
A closer look (he seemed to turn) might have
Put him to flight forever —
I dared not
(For reasons that I failed to understand),
Though I knew I should act at once.

I puzzled over it, hiding alone,
Watching the woman as she neared the gate.
He came, and I saw him crouching
Night after night.     ⬆️
Night after night     ⬇️
He came, and I saw him crouching,
Watching the woman as she neared the gate.

I puzzled over it, hiding alone —
Though I knew I should act at once,
For reasons that I failed to understand
I dared not
Put him to flight forever.

A closer look (he seemed to turn) might have
Revealed in the ragged moon.
A momentary glimpse of gleaming eyes
A shape amid the shadows,
Blackness that moved.

Peering furtively from behind a bush,
I saw him for the first time,
Entering the lonely house with my wife.

The poem "Doppelganger" is a palindrome because half way through the poem every single line is repeated but backwards. Even though half of the poem is repeated the meaning can change and so can the mood of the poem.                --------

     🔥    FIRE AND ICE     🌫️

SOME SAY THE WORLD 🌍 WILL END IN FIRE ; 

SOME SAY IN ICE  ,

FROM WHAT I ' VE  TASTED OF DESIRE

I HOLD WITH WHO FAVOUR FIRE

BUT IF IT HAD TO PERISH TWICE,

I THINK I KNOW ENOUGH OF HATE

  TO SAY THAT FOR DESTRUCTION ICE,

      IT ALSO GREAT AND WOULD SUFFICE .                                                            BY " ROBERT FROST "

Origin of the Quote " it goes on"

According to research by the Quote Investigator, Frost reportedly uttered this sentiment during his 80th birthday celebration in 1954. When asked by journalist Ray Josephs what the most important thing he had learned about life was, Frost replied with the now-famous three words.

Some quotes feel like a gentle nudge, while others act like a mirror. “In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.” This short yet powerful line by Robert Frost does both. In just a few words, the celebrated American poet captures a truth that feels deeply personal and universally relatable.

"Life moves forward, quietly and steadily, no matter what we face."

This quote stands out because it does not offer false comfort or dramatic optimism. Instead, it delivers something more real: resilience. Whether moments are joyful or painful, life continues, asking us to adapt, heal, and keep walking.Frost is not dismissing pain or struggle. He is acknowledging that life does not pause for grief, regret, or fear.The line suggests acceptance. Some days are heavy, some days feel light, but time keeps moving. And with that movement comes change, sometimes slow, sometimes sudden, but always inevitable.One reason Frost’s words continue to resonate is their simplicity. He did not rely on complex language to sound wise. Instead, he trusted clarity. This quote reflects that style perfectly, honest, direct, and deeply humanIt also shows Frost’s belief that wisdom does not always come from grand events. Sometimes, it comes from simply observing life and accepting its rhythm.
