Answer 2

In the poem "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost, while the poet is traveling he faces the path which is split in two.

The traveler had to decide upon which path to chose. The diverged road represented the choices in life that one needs to make. The traveler suggests that he is sorry that he cannot travel both the roads.

Two roads diverged in a yellow road,

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;

The traveler stood and decided upon choosing the path which is less traveled "Grassy and wanted wear." The traveler doubts his return and wonders what the other path might lead to.

In the end, he finally takes his decision:

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.
