Robert Frost: The Road Not Taken (1915)

-
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.

The Road Not Taken

And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could

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 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.

The Road Not Taken has always been a favorite. Great stuff to use with ESL students, or any students, for that matter. It's a shame that so many kids today have their heads filled with rap and hiphop and don't realy know the power of pure poetry.

"The Hired Hand". Within the poem is the very famous line, "Home is where when you have to go there, they have to take you in."

Of course, there are many others, but that line connected with something in my heart and has remained these last 40 years.

"The Road Not Taken", "Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening" (the actual name of the poem that someone up there thought is called 'Whose Woods These Are'), and "Home Burial".

its called "whose woods these are"
whose woods these are, i think i know,
his house is in the village though, he will not see me stopping here,
to watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer, to stop without a farmhouse near.
between the woods and frozan lake, the darkest evening of the year.
he gives his harness bells a shake, to ask if there is some mistake,
the only other sound's the sweep,
of easy wind and downy flake.
the woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
but i have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go, before i sleep.

I'm torn between "My November Guest" and "The Woodpile".
