Question

Answer the following question in about 40-50 words:

“Dust of Snow” presents the polar opposites black and white in a colour pallet. Justify, that ‘black’ and ‘white’ signify something deeper than the superficial meaning in the poem. 

Answer 1

In Frost’s “Dust of Snow,” the crow’s blackness suggests gloom, guilt, or death while the white snow implies cleansing, surprise grace and renewal; their contrast turns a trivial moment into moral/emotional transformation, changing the speaker’s mood and redeeming a day he had rued.
