The Road Not Taken bloggy posty

            The poem The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost is about a man in his mid-life, having to make a choice between to roads in his life, then later, wondering what the other road would have held for him, and how it would have changed his life. In the poem, it states that "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood," and that means that there were two choices for him to make, and the yellow wood means that it's fall, which means its probably in the middle/end of his life. This poem show the man looking back by stating that "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference."

              In the poem it states that "Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim Because it was grassy and wanted wear," this shows that the narrator is choosing which path to choose, and chooses one because less people had traveled on it. The poem says after that that
"Oh, I marked the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way I doubted if I should ever come back." This shows that the narrator wanted to go on the other path, or the other destiny, but decided that he would save it for another day. Again, in the future, or in the fourth stanza he says that "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."

          All and all this shows that the narrator chose one path in life, and decided that he would go the other way one day. the poem indeed shows the man looking back- without regret but more curiosity, and wonders what the other path would have held.
