Variation on a Theme by Frost
It’s often said
Within the breaths
That two roads less taken
In a yellow wood
Diverges, I.
I, left the morning there,
in those trees of gold,
in those paths of grass.
The hardest part of two roads
is not who else has taken it,
but does it lead somewhere?
I climbed the trees beside,
And looked beyond what I could see.
And climbed back down,
And took no path,
For these roads were not meant for me.
I will tell the sighs
Of those ages hence
I have made all the difference.
Why must I choose
one diverged road?
