The Road Not Taken

The Road Not Taken 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. The first time I learn this poem is in high school English calss.This poem is describing the traveler walking in the woods,facing the choice of two different path.In fact,the poet wants to tell us that our future depense on what we decided.One cannot make an omelet without breaking eggs.
