"Mending Wall" Reflection

“Mending Wall” by Robert Frost is a piece of disillusionment. The neighbor in the story simply accepts the philosophy that “Good fences make good neighbors.” The narrator on the other hand knows that there is really no reason to maintain a wall. Since him and his neighbor both grow trees and don’t have any livestock to keep on their property. Even though the neighbor knows this he continues to follow his philosophy that “Good fences make good neighbors.”
