A symbol is a key object in which the poem revolves around.
A Patch of Old Snow
There's a patch of old snow in a corner
That I should have guessed
Was a blow-away paper the rain
Had brought to rest.
It is speckled with grime as if
Small print overspread it,
The news of a day I've forgotten --If I ever read it.Robert Frost

The significance of a symbol is that it tells the poem. It is important
because without it no one would understand what it is about. What a
symbol ads to a poem is clarification and meaning. It makes poetry
better because it reaches out to people and some may be able to relate.
