What is the basic conflict in "Stopping by Woods"

Between the beauty of the woods and outside responsibilities

"You may tread me in the very dirt...

But still, like dust, I'll rise

"Whose woods these are I think I know..."

His house is in the village, though

Sundays too my father got up early

and put his clothes on in the blueblack cold

"Do you want to see me broken? Bowed head and lowered eyes?...

Shoulders falling down like teardrops

And slowly I would rise and dress

fearing the chronic angers of that house

What did I know, what did I know?

of love's austere and lonely offices?
