The poem “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost makes me feel a sense of accomplishment. In the beginning it seems a bit lonely and distant with how the roads stretch really far. Being the only traveler there the fork on the road is telling you to make a decision on your own. I’m not sure where the traveler is going and this reminds me of life and a person’s goals and ambitions. Often times you may think you know what you want to do but truth is you are only looking at an empty road ahead of you without much detail to tell you what to expect. This is a bit frustrating because you usually want things to be clear and easy or at least have the impression that they are. Having no guide to advise you to or any signposts leave the burden of the choice to you alone. I don’t know anything about the speaker however his tone gives me hope and makes me want to trust him. He says that he is apologetic and stands at the fork in the road for a while. This tells me that he knows his limits and likes to think carefully by observing before moving on. But at the same time he is curious and trying to explore the path that seems to be unused. After reading it I felt that is wasn’t as musical as the other two poems but it had more of a slow or broken rhyme. It was exactly like he said that he will be telling this poem with a sigh. This is perfect for this poem because after he takes the road, he won’t return and can only look back. As for the setting I can imagine it being fall since the author uses imagery to let us imagine for ourselves before those two roads with leaves on the ground and yellow wood which I imagined to be yellow or orange autumn leaves.
