\ghost house\ by robert frost
1 i dwell in a lonely house i know
that vanished many a summer ago,
and left no trace but the cellar walls,
and a cellar in which the daylight falls,
5 and the purple - stemmed wild raspberries grow.
o’er ruined fences the grape - vines shield
the woods come back to the mowing field;
the orchard tree has grown one copse
of new wood and old where the woodpecker chops;

the word \abode\ in the poem most likely means...
○ a journey or adventure.
○ a place where someone lives.
○ a state of mind or feeling.
○ a historical period.
← previous
next →

Explanation:

In the poem "Ghost House", the context around "abode" (related to the "lonely house" the speaker dwells in) and the definition of "abode" as a dwelling place align with the option "a place where someone lives". The other options (journey, state of mind, historical period) don't fit the context of a house/dwelling.

Answer:

a place where someone lives.
