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 undergrowth;
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Meaning
Frost reflects on the choices we make in life and how they define our journey.

Robert Frost
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
Meaning
A meditation on duty and the seductive pull of rest and nature.

When I see birches bend to left and right
Across the lines of straighter darker trees,
I like to think some boy's been swinging them.
But swinging doesn't bend them down to stay.
Ice-storms do that.
I'd like to get away from earth awhile
And then come back to it and begin over.
Meaning
The desire to escape and return renewed.

I went down to the river,
I set down on the bank.
I tried to think but could not,
So I jumped in and sank.
Life is fine!
Fine as wine!
Life is fine!
Meaning
Facing life challenges head-on and finding them beautiful.
