Robert Frost's Poetry

I am starting with one of my favorites and one of his most well known, "The Road Not Taken". It's actually earlier in the book on page 48. I remember studying this poem in college and reading somewhere that his inspiration came from being dragged off on evenings walks with a friend. This poem more than many others has actually spoken to me throughout my life as I have wondered at the roads that I did take as opposed to the roads that I did not take. I can see clearly choices that I made that would have led to a different life and as Frost said, "And that has made all the difference."
