the poem is very inspiring... through our journey we need to choose the path we want to go through. most of the time we choose the easiest path because we are afraid of taking risks.. but life is about taking risks... that's why we have to choose the trail where we will be most fulfilled even though it may be hard for us...

The Road Not Taken................this poem has inspired me from the moment i was introduced to it by my teacher in school. The poet has illustrated the saying 'Winners dont do different things, they do things differently' with this poem. The less trodden path will always hav many uncleared bushes n obstacles but at the end it will have its own share of beauty that few people hav ever seen.

Fantastic!
I love it because it's like life... you may choose to take the path that not many have taken before, and you mayn't be able to take the other.

A bzillion thumbs up! =)

This has always been one of my favorite poems of Robert Frost's, I think for obvious reasons. The flow was perfect, the imagery was nice, the emotion was good but the main thing was the message, this message really had an impact on my life. How many of us have stood at the fork, looking down the easy path one way, the hard (lesser trod) path the other way, and decided to go down the easy road... the one less traveled by? I choose the roads less traveled by, myself, and that truly has made all the difference.

P.S. Robert Frost was my single most influential poet while growing up and was the main reason I took to writing poetry. Though my favorite poet is Edger Allen Poe... Robert Frost had the most influence over me.

My second favorite Frost (behind Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening) , this poem has an effortlessness that belies the deep emotions and vivid ideas interwoven. And the end always makes me feel regretful for some reason. Possibly because I might have taken the wrong road :)

The road not Taken is adout two path in life. He chose the one less travel to follow his dream.To go a different path in life.

Have any of you taken the time to realize that the poem is one of more or less remorse? The poem is not about the road less traveled, it is about the road NOT taken. He isn't saying in the last line that he's glad, nor did he ever hint that either was less traveled, in fact he said 'Though as for that the passing there/Had worn them really about the same, ' Meaning both were traveled equally. And when he says 'I shall be telling this with a sigh/Somewhere ages and ages hence: ' he is saying somewhere down the line he's going to think to himself that perhaps he made the wrong choice even though he is trying to convince both him and others that it had made all the difference. Everyone should be able to understand this by simply reading it and not over analyzing it but taking each word at it's face value. But I suppose misinterpitation is expected when reading the words or a rhetorical geniouse.
