The Road Not taken

Happy New Year dear visitor! May the new year bring lots of happiness in your life. Below I produce my favorite poem from Robert Frost, 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.
