Summary: THE ANSWER OF "THE ROAD NOT TAKEN"
Review: A person is walking in the woods. It is a warm afternoon. Thewoods are filled with bright light, and he walks in light steps in thespreading patterns of the branches of the trees. Where the road diverged in two paths, he paused. Which way should I take? After a long pondering, he takes the road less taken, which are grassy, covered with the untrodden leaves. Why?

Sometimes our lives force us to choose one way because we can't take both. It's very difficult to make the decision, as we know that one way is much easier, more secure to pass, and many people choose it; but another is more rough and needs a lot of effort to take. Even we know clearly which way to go to experience our life fully but with some regrets and mistakes. That's why it's very difficult. This poem focuses on the theme of human isolation and fears, human's reaction to the complexities of life. It presents a sober vision of the life but also has the hope, as well as sadness, we all experience.

Robert Frost is perhaps the most popular and beloved of 20th-century American poet. Born in San Francisco, he spent most of his adult life in rural New England. Through the poem, I can meditate and reflect on life as Frost did. He attempted to write poetry while teaching at school or working a farm. This poem was written in one of those days when young Frost was dedicated to the art of poetry and struggling. The road he chose was winding, split in many ways, twisted and sometimes disappeared in the undergrowth. Sometimes he might feel some regrets because of fear and uncertainty in the very middle way on the path. Or he was scared that the road was not paved for him and screamed, " He kept writing, observing the details of living, and could make the poetry of a true, real, natural vision of life.

Everyone needs poems about life sometimes. Poems, which light our lives brightly and give hints and secrets how our lives should be, as Frost once said "begin in delight and end in wisdom." END

Summary: Excellent, the definitive Frost...
Review: Frost reads many of his best. Recorded in 1956 at his home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the authors own voice inflections give the listener many hours of pondering simple yet complex prose.
