It's about how frail life is.
How countlessly they congregate - There's alot of people that die, and keep
dying.
O'er our tumultuous snow - Just talking about the earth and how unsteady it
is. tumultuous means noisy and disorderly so it's prolly just talking about
the human race on earth in general and how disorderly we are in our ways.
Keen-ness for our fate - meaning greif for our fate.
our faltering few steps on - faltering is to be unsteady in purpose due to
lack of courage or will.
And yet with neither love nor hate, [God doesn't help us to stay alive or
anything, but he's never shown hate.]
Those stars like some snow-white
Minerva's snow-white marble eyes [Goddess of wisdom of course.]
Without the gift of sight. [failure to see how precious our lives really
are.]

"Stars" by Robert Frost is a poem about the frailty of human life. "Our
faltering few steps" means that our lives are only a few steps compared to
the stars. Minerva is the goddess of wisdom in Greek mythology and(as far
as I can tell) the poem is talking about the first statue made of her (now
in the Louvre) made of ivory.

There are two errors in the last stanza of the poem.
"starts" should be stars and "somw" should be some.
