Jim, you're really lame. That's sad that you have nothing better to do put post a worthless comment on a website that might actually help someone. Pat, you're so right! Jim, shut UP! This poem isn't about nothing, no poems are about nothing. This poem is REALLY about the cycle of life and of the hard times that people go through throughout their life. Just the fact that Frost mentions society in the poem proves that he is implying a hidden meaning. Gosh, don't be a retard, Jim.

In my humble opinion, this is a logical way to interpret the poem:
The same leaves over and over again! – Birth of new babies
They fall from giving shade above – They leave their mother
To make one texture of faded brown
And fit the earth like a leather glove. – They are all the same to fit society
Before the leaves can mount again
To fill the trees with another shade, - Before they can recover from that change to make new babies
They must go down past things coming up. – Love
They must go down into the dark decayed. – Various problems
They must be pierced by flowers and put – Heartbreak
Beneath the feet of dancing flowers. – Rebirth (recovery)
However it is in some other world
I know that this is way in ours. – This proves that Frost wrote about our society and not trees or animals
