This study investigates the significance of countryside sceneries in selected poems written by both poets in the modern era. The study also analyses seasonal changes and nature-human interactions through employing formal ambiguity The study argues that the various natural images used by the poets, as they prompted readers to actively participate in analyzing the aesthetic scenery portrayals and countryside landscapes. Goran and Frost relied heavily on the interpretation of landscapes and humanity as close observers of the interactions between people and the surrounding images.
