The sybolism in Robert Frost's poem "The Road Not Taken" Frost (1916) is the road represents a lifes journey. For many of us their is a choice of roads in our lives and for many of us the life we did not choose might fill us with a certain meloncholoy regret. We all have roads to travel and for us all other are those not taken. For every road we may have regret in not taking, there is an equal number we should be glad we did not take. The last line in the poem is one of truth and clarity. No matter the roads we did not travel, it is the one we did "that has made all the differance" (20)
Today I walk the road not taken
one I had passed by,
the path chosen on that day
has left me with a sigh.
a scary road I walk today
and this is saying why
the path I really chose that day
had left me with a sigh.
