Design :-
‘Design’ is a very impressive sonnet. It is
about an isty‐bisty spider, a flower and a Moth. Frost changing the meaning of
Design.
The poem begins with a
simple setup—the first three lines introduce us to the main characters. We have
a big white spider on a white flower, poised to eat a white moth. The speaker sees
this bizarre little albino meeting as some weird witches' brew, as all three
are brought together for some awful reason.
That observation leads
the speaker to a series of questions: Why is this flower white, when it is
usually blue? What brought the spider to that particular flower? What made the
moth decide to flutter by right then?
Frost concludes that if
it were "design" that brought these three together, it must be some
pretty dark design. In other words, it's not a comforting thought to think that
God went out of his way just to make sure this moth got eaten. But that's the
crucial "if" of the last line: if design does govern these small
things.
