First Two Lines Roads Diverged
721 words
Robert Frost was one of the United States'
best-loved poets. Frost was greatly influenced by
his move from San Francisco to New England at the
age of 11, his move to England when he was 37, and
then his return to New Hampshire a couple of years
later (Knowledge Adventure 2). Robert Frosts
inspiration for his poetry came from within
himself. His decisions concerning which direction

Grassy And Wanted Part Of The Poem
636 words
People make decisions every single day, even if
they know it or not. Whether it is an important
decision as in buying the right car, or a little
decision as in deciding what to eat for lunch. No
matter what the decision maybe, one has to make
choices everyday. Although it may be the wrong
choice later on, no one has the ability to look
into the future. But one must move on even though
it may not be the right choice. Robert Frost
explains this well in The Road Not Taken, in which
he describes a s...

The art of the poet is to explore the very
questions of human existence. The art of poetry is

famous authors of times past and present have

of human existence. Two of these masters, William
Shakespeare and Robert Frost are examples of
writers who have made the step from poetry to
works of art. This is show...

Birches By Robert Frost
731 words
BIRCHES BY ROBERT FROST Poetry, according to
Coleridge, is the best words in their best order.
Although this remark hardly satisfies the
requirements of formal definition, it does assert
an important fact: the order of the words in a
poem is as material as the words themselves. A
good poet labors harder than any other kind of
writer to say exactly what he means, because he
wishes to expose his thoughts rather than hide
them. His passion for excuses is like the
mathematicians. But unlike the math...

Critical Decisions In Crucial Times Poetry
perceives the irrational mysteries and subtle
truths, through rational words. Although it is not
true to assume that poetry always emanates its
messages from the arcane land of mysteries, but it
is pretty safe to conjecture that poetry is one of
the means, most often utilized, to virtually
ground the invisible and get into the inscrutable.

The poem The Road Not Taken is popular for a good
reason. It has many different meanings, all of
which are fair interpretations. My interpretation
is that throughout life, we are faced with many
difficult decisions. We should strive to be unique
when making these decisions. The reason I chose
this poem is because this idea relates to me quite
well. I try to live in the manner Frost describes.
Taking the common path is not the best way to live
and I think that Robert Frost is trying to tell us
