1)Some poetic devices included in "The Road Not Taken" are the assonance in the poem's first line, emphasizing the "o" sound in "roads" and "yellow," the alliteration in the third line of the second stanza with "wanted wear," and, within this same line, the personification in the road "it was grassy and wanted wear." The poem, overall, is a metaphor for the different directions one takes in life.
2) there are four stanzas.
3)and 4) The mood or tone of Robert Frost's poem "The Road Not Taken" can perhaps be best described by the word nostalgia. It means looking back on the past with sentimental emotions. The poem can be profitably compared with Shakespeare's famous sonnet #30 which begins with the following lines.
When to the sessions of sweet, silent thought
I summon up remembrance of things past
After a certain age--say forty-five or thereabouts--it is common for people to look back on their lives and reflect about what they could have done differently, or should have done differently. It is appropriate that Frost uses the two roads diverging in the woods as a symbol or metaphor, because no doubt as a young man he was actually taking long walks by himself and meditating on his biggest problem of that period, which is most people's biggest problem when they are young. The roads represent possible career choices. He knew he wanted to write poetry, but he knew he also had to earn a living. And poets generally make very little money, if they earn anything at all.
Your whole duty as a writer is to please and satisfy yourself, and the true writer always plays to an audience of one. Start sniffing the air, or glancing at the Trend Machine, and you are as good as dead, although you may make a nice living.

The speaker in the poem, who is undoubtedly Frost himself, knows he doesn't really want to change and knows he is too old to change now even if he wanted to. But he can't help wondering whether he made the right decision, whether he really had any choice in the matter, or whether everyone's fate is predetermined. Life is a mystery when we are young, and instead of getting less mysterious as we grow older, it gets more and more mysterious.
The poem is inconclusive. All that is resolved is that he had to make a choice and he chose to lead a simple, rural life not unlike that of Henry David Thoreau, and to devote most of his time to creative writing. This inevitably meant writing about nature, since there was little else to write about. Life is largely a matter of making choices at what William James, the distinguished American philosopher and psychologist, brother of the great fiction writer Henry James, called "crossroads situations.
5)The language is pure English.
6)Rhyme refers to the pattern or rhythm of sounds a poet creates in his/her poetry by using similar sounding words. A rhyme scheme refers to the recurrence of similar sounding words at the end of each line in a poem, thus creating a pattern. Rhyme schemes not only provide a rhythmical quality to the poem, but can also be used to accentuate an idea or thought or as a binding agent which creates unity in the stanzas or in the entire poem. Any deviation from the pattern would, therefore, place more emphasis on the line that is different.
When identifying a rhyme scheme, one should consider the end rhyme, i.e. the pattern of sounds repeated at the end of each line. Starting with the first letter of the alphabet, 'A,' one denotes the rhyme for the first line. Every first line will, therefore, be allocated an 'A.' One then determines whether the end rhyme of the first line is repeated and, if so, the same notation is used. After that, a line which does not repeat the same sound in its end is indicated with a 'B.' The process is repeated until the end of the poem, using the letters of the alphabet in capitalized form.
Using this method, then, one can see that the rhyme scheme in Frost's poem is ABAAB; CDCCD; EFEEF; GHGGH. Frost uses a very particular rhyme scheme that is quite original. He utilizes full rhyme throughout the poem with the exception of lines 17 and 20, where he uses half rhyme. It is obvious that the syllables at the ends of these lines do not rhyme perfectly: "hence" (line 17) and "difference" (line 20), unless one emphasizes the third syllable in "difference" and pronounces the 'e' as the first syllable in "hence.
