My favorite poem

When I was in elementary school, I had to memorize this poem. And after more than 2 decades later, it is still my favorite.... The Road not Taken Robert Frost Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
and sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
and looked down one as far as I could
to where it bent in the under growth; Then took the other, as just as fair,
and having perhaps the better claim
because it was grassy and wanted wear;
though as for that, the passing there
had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally laying leaves no feet had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I --I took the one less traveled by,and that has made all the difference.
