The Aim Was Song Analysis
Author: Poetry of Robert Frost Type: Poetry Views: 1419

The wind once blew itself untaught,
And did its loudest day and night
In any rough place where it caught.Man came to tell it what was wrong:
It hadn't found the place to blow;
It blew too hard -- the aim was song.
And listen -- how it ought to go!He took a little in his mouth,
And held it long enough for north
To be converted into south,
And then by measure blew it forth.By measure. It was word and note,
The wind the wind had meant to be --
A little through the lips and throat.
The aim was song -- the wind could see.

I believe this to be robert frost's interpretation of how poetry came to be in a mythical tale.
it seems as if wind a pure raw energy was blowing itself all over the place and man came to half way tame it so that the mixture between man and wind created song (poetry)
it does not sound as if the man is proud, or as if the wind is critical of him, it feels more like the man and the wind became one, and as allies they created the first song.
I especially liked the bit about holding a little in his mouth ong enough for north to be converted to south and then lowing it forth by measure, it sou ds almost like a wine tasteing, or an opera.

i think it is describing how man is meddling with nature and that originally it could function perfectly but man wanted the wind/nature to do his work-singing.
Man came to tell it what was wrong:
It hadn't found the place to blow;
It blew too hard -- the aim was song
this is describing how man was criticing the winds work and it had just said it caught in any rough place saying that is was always singing or at least howling and man just thinks it is wrong now.
And then by measure blew it forth.By measure. It was word and note,
The wind the wind had meant to be --
measure- like the measures in a piece of music. the wind the wind had meant to be. tricky maybe to understand the wind was trying to be the same wind that man had produced-song.
