A+Considerable+Speck

The title itself, "A Considerable Speck" is an interesting and suggestive title. Something of little importance is to be considered, makes the reader instantly wonder why? What is it about this "speck" that would make it considerable? It is a play-on-words, and Robert Frost does that very well in this poem. He manages to take something of little importance and make it of the greatest importance to the reader from the speakers perspective.
