The Snow Is Whirling Lively and Strong - meaning Summary
Joy Lost in Motion
The poem presents a winter scene of driving snow and a lively three‑horse sleigh; its brisk motion frames the speaker’s private unease. Young riders pass by and the speaker wonders where personal happiness and joy have gone, suggesting loss or missed opportunity. The recurring image of the sleigh and storm emphasizes life’s rush and the speaker’s sense of being left behind while others move rapidly onward.
