Two roads diverged in a yellow wood....

Inspired by our recent vacation at The Lake in Vermont, I am kicking off this blog with a great Robert Frost peom. Choose your path folks. Join the blog.

The Road Not Taken
By 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.

Comments:
Perhaps the path not taken was over a damp septic field... anything is possible in VT.
 
Only losers commetn on their own postings.
