summary of the poem the road not taken?
One day, the poet Robert Frost, travelling all alone, reaches a point where the road forks into two. He faces a dilemma as to which road to take to continue his journey. He is unable to decide which road to follow. He pauses for a long time. He gives a careful thought to which path he should follow. The he decides to choose that road which seems to be less traveled. He feels it will make all the difference to his future. he decides to save the other road for another day, thought he knows that he will never get a chance to go back to it. Later, he wishes that he had taken the other road.
The poet feels that after ages from now he would be telling about his decision with a sigh. He would tell how the less frequented road, and that had made all the difference in his life.
The poet presented the difficulty or making a choice in life. We cannot travel all the roads available to us. We have to make a choice. The dilemma faced by the poet in making his choice is the dilemma that we all face at some point in your life. We have all have or had to make a choice. Only the future will reveal weather the choice was right or wrong. But can't go back to revert our choice. Choices and decisions are like steps that carry us forward. We can only look back and repent at out choices.
