Default nice poem

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;

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 lay
In leaves no step 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.

Yogi Berra who said, "When you come to a fork in the road......Take it!"

Indeed like Frost's more philisophical musings......my life will never be the same because of the choices I have made....one road has lead on to another.....lovely bi-ways and side paths, a few detours and round-abouts....they have made all the difference!

Neither Out Far Nor In Deep
Robert Frost


The people along the sand
All turn and look one way.
They turn there back on the land.
They look at the sea all day.

As long as it takes to pass
A ship keeps raising its hull;
The wetter ground like grass
Reflects the standing gull.

The land may vary more;
But whatever the truth may be-
The water comes ashore,
And the people look at the sea.

They cannot look out far.
They cannot look in deep.
But when was that ever a bar
To any watch they keep?
