Life can be so hectic but the least traumatic of times is childhood. Robert Frost understood that if you could live life like a child, life can be much more simple. He exemplifies this believe in the poem, "Birches." The poem proves that Frost's method of dealing with the chaos of the world is valid.
             Frost relates the strain of the world to occurrences in nature, such as an ice storm. Much like the trees covered in snow, described in the poem, people can be burdened down with stress: "And they seem not to break; though once they are bowed/ So low for long; they never right themselves."
             Even thought the world is stressful, Frost wouldn't want to give it up. He knows that even the though life and the world can be taxing; it is a wonderful place. "...Earth's the right place for love/ I don't know where it's likely to go better." Frost understood that as crazy as Earth is there is so in life to enjoy.
             Frost's way of dealing with the chaos of life is to "be a swinger of birches." He wants to leave this world behind for a time so he can relax. Frost says, "But dipped it's top and set me down again." He doesn't believe in breaking the tree down but only bending it. He wants to leave the Earth in the same way a child plays and they forget about time; children "make-believe" about their own world.
             In conclusion, even though life can be tremendously stressful but there life is too wonderful to leave. Everyone needs a break from their anxieties. Frost knew that the best way to deal with life was to get away from it for a while.
