| The Road Not Taken |
|
|---|---|
Two
roads diverged in a yellow wood, And be one traveler, long I stood To where it bent in the undergrowth; And having perhaps the better claim, Though as for that, the passing there And both that morning equally lay Oh, I kept the first for another day! I doubted if I should ever come back. Somewhere ages and ages hence: I took the one less traveled by, |
And
sorry I could not travel both And looked down one as far as I could Then took the other, as just as fair, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Had worn them really about the same, In leaves no step had trodden black. Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I shall be telling this with a sigh Two roads diverged in a wood, and I — And that has made all the difference. |
