Dear Student,

Please find the answer below

"Dust of Snow" is a poem by Robert Frost. The poet conveys the message about finding positivity in negative things through a crow and hemlock tree. The poet was having a bad day and was not in a good mood. He was standing under a hemlock tree, when suddenly a crow sitting on the tree shakes it and fine particles of snow from tree falls on the poet. This soft touch of snow changes the mood of the poet from sad to happy and through this simple way his day is saved from being wasted. Hence this moment proves to be very significant.
