It can be assumed that the “fall” Frost talks about is related to the fall from grace of Adam and Eve. The autumnal fall as a type of the fall from Paradise, which is the original one we name the fall. The fall of Adam and Eve brought about the changing of Paradise in nature. That fall brought upon the separation of spring from fall and promise from conditional fulfillment.

The fall can also be the downside of getting older. Frost may be describing the process toward death that began with birth. As the seasons change the years go by, we get older and nothing in this cycle can be stopped.

‘Fall’ takes on many personalities in this poem: petal fall, the season fall, the first fall from grace, our individual downfalls, and each takes on the burden of a whole complex of moral values. All of these “falls” lead to one thing, which is the ending of something. People should not dwell on the endings because then they will miss new beginnings. The oven-bird is singing about things coming to an end and through this Frost is letting the reader know that we need to rationally accommodate ourselves with the fallen world.
