Be One Traveler, Long I Stood

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.

The Road Not Taken, Robert Frost

I love the dreamy feel of this picture.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967

Frost must have had your vision in mind, Chris. As for me, if the "road" is in one of our state parks I find the less traveled to be preferable. If it's far from civilization, perhaps alongside a glacial lake in the wilderness, I'll stick to the well-worn... that way I know I'll eventually make it back.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

In spite of the dreamy look, I'm heading for home because it will be dark soon, John.
Thanks that I was your companion on this very interesting and wonderful stroll!

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Beautiful and artistic John well done.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
