Poem Report on The Road Not Taken

     This week my class read The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost. The poem is about a person who comes to a fork in the road and has to make a decision about which way to go, even though he cannot tell which might be the better choice. He looks down both roads as far as he can but still can't see what is a better choice. In life you have to make choices that you don't know what is the better choice and you can't return to make the other choice.
    In the poem it said "two roads diverged in a yellow wood" which is a metaphor that means that in your life you will have to make a decision and take it. Sometimes the choices won't be easy and you will want to "look down as far as I could" which means you will try to look into each choice to see if one is the better choice until you can't look any farther. This is why I think in life you have to make decisions.
     An example of not coming back in the poem is when it said "I doubted if I should ever come back" shows that after making your decisions you won't be able to make the same decision again even if the decision you made was bad, you just have to live with your choice. It also says that "yet knowing way leads on to way" which also shows that you have to live with your decisions. This is why I think that you can't return to make the other choice.
    All in all, The Road Not Taken was a great poem that was about a man who is at a fork in the road, but the metaphor is that in life there will be hard decisions you will have to make which is like the fork in the road. You want to look down each road or in life try finding out which choice is better. Then in life once you make your decision you can't go back and choose the other choice. This is why I think the main idea of the poem is that you have to make hard choices in life and you can't go back to change your choice.
