Healthy Body Mind Body
645 words
Beginning with the time of birth until the time of
death, people have to make choices everyday on how
to achieve the goals in their lives. One can
imagine life as a long winding road with millions
of other roads branching off in many directions.
The only problem is that life is too short to
explore every single road. In addition, the
essence of time will not allow anyone to go back
to a road that was passed. Everyone must choose
his / her own roads through life regardless of
what other people mi...

Ages And Ages Poem The Road
359 words
1998 "The Road Not Taken" Rather Than "The Road
Taken?" A Title, A Choice The title of a poem
often reflects the author's theme. In his poem
"The Road Not Taken" Frost's theme is about
choices. He had two roads to chose from and
wonders what would have happened had he taken the
other road. His title reflects this. The first
three lines, "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
/ And sorry I could not travel both /And be one
traveler, long I stood", tell us the narrator must
choose between two roads...

Road Less Traveled Third Stanza
1,011 words
Robert Frost's "The Road Not Taken" shows the
uncertainty as to which road of life a person
should choose. It raises the evident question of
whether it is better to choose a road in which
many travel, or to choose the road less traveled
and explore it yourself. In this poem the speakers
tone, diction, and setting help to illustrate the
struggle a person goes through in their lives to

Make Good Neighbors False Sense Of Security
825 words
Walls and Borders Do "good fences really make good
neighbors?" (666) Robert Frost's poem Mending Wall
examines this as a local issue. It can also be
interpreted as a global issue. Frost writes about
two neighbor farmers and how a wall between their
property effects the relationship between the two.
Taking a more global look at the issue, the
conflict in the former Yugoslavia relates to
Mending Wall. Perhaps "good fences" give people a
false sense of security. Robert Frost's poem,
Mending Wall, i...

The Lover not taken Trying to understand and
analyze literature, it is also necessary to
discuss the trends in literature at that time. But
no matter how the discussion would be organized it
is evident that the most important themes explored
in literature are love and hate; man and his
perception of the reality: and choice that a man
should make. It should be pointed that
post-Renaissance life and literature illustrates
the influence of scepticism upon philosophy and
literature. For a long time ...

Edgar Allen Poe Masque Of The Red Death
589 words
Red Death Critique Even though Edgar Allen Poe has
publicly stated his dislike for the technique of
allegory (a type of metaphor abstract). Uses of it
can be found in his short story The Masque of the
Red Death. Two that are evident are; the clock
that signals Deaths approach, and the repetition
of the number seven to implies lifes end. In the
story a prince named Prospero is ruling in the
mists of a plague that has killed half of his
population. But instead of helping his people

Man Feels Show Feelings Quot

In the poem " Home Burial" by Robert
Frost, it is easy to see both positive and
negative aspects of both characters. I feel that
Frost favors the man. Although he talks about how
the man seems to not have feelings, the man
actually does. The man feels sad for his dead
child. He just goes about showing it in a
different way. The man feels that he must move on
with his life. He tries to get his mind off the
whole thing. He digs the grave and then tries to
focus on other things. He worrie...

Life Speaker Woods

In Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening, we have a
man who stops in the woods to watch the snow fall.
The speaker finds these woods to escape from the
everyday stresses of life. My own interpretation
is that the man finds himself at a critical
crossroad in his life and he flees to these woods
to reflect on his life. The woods that Frost
illustrates are a representation of heaven.
Although the man is turning to God for guidance,
he is neither in nor near a church. Even still, he
