I cannot
express how much I love this poem. I have read it many years ago. Back in
college, it used to be my favorite one. Since I don’t have anything better to
share with you folks tonight, here it goes - The Road Not Taken, by Robert
Frost.
Have fun!
The Road Not
Taken
(Robert Frost)
(Robert Frost)
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Lee Frost (March 26, 1874 – January 29, 1963) was an American poet. He is well
known for his realistic writings of rural life and his use of American informal
(slang) speech.[1] His poems were often set in rural life in New England in the
early twentieth century, and used these settings to look at complex social and
philosophical themes. Frost has often been quoted by other people. He was
honored often during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry. [From
