Miles to go before I sleep

The last stanza reminds me of my radiation treatment and how long it takes to get through the 30 days of treatment (6 weeks total). Miles to go before I sleep.... Hanging in there though.


Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

One of my radiation therapists gave me this pillow yesterday before my treatment. I absolutely love it. :)
