Robert Frost knew:
there are roughly zones, good fences make good neighbors.
There are places I just cannot take you
and places you go
where I will never tread.
Still, don't be out off by me tending to my walls.
They're not all to keep you out.
Some are meant to keep you safe
when I tuck you inside of me.

RamseyCreekover 11 years agoThanks for the clarification. In Frost's poem, the two neighbors meet to repair the wall together. That seems to be one reason why/how good fences make good neighbors. In your poem, the narrator appears to be tending the walls alone -- which may be why the explanation in the last three lines is necessary. And a good explanation it is!

Hope that clarifies things.
