Make A Decision Poem The Road

which he looks upon his future. In any case
however, this poem clearly demonstrates Frost's
belief that it is the road tha...

get the safety and love he knew no other way to
get. People must respond to information by making
choices and decisions. Yet time after time, they
freeze, and nothing is more destructive to the
health of the individual. Research indicates a

road, we need to move on, accepting what we have
done, because what has happened has happened and
there is nothing we can do to change the past.

loss of their first-born son as well as from the

There are many good poets in the world but the one
that I like the most is Robert Frost. He is such a

is to show a problem many people have to face one
point or another in life. There are two roads that
he can take but doesn? t know which one to take.
