The Road Not Taken 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 marked 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. 未選擇的路 The Road Not Taken 羅伯特.弗羅斯特(1874壹1963)是在馬薩諸塞州勞倫斯上的中學,也在達特第斯學院和哈佛大學讀過壹段時間。獲得詩名之前,弗羅斯特時而務農,時而到中學教希臘語和拉丁語。他的第壹部詩集出版於1913年。1916年後,他壹直在著名學府任職,通常的身份是“住校詩人”。弗羅斯特的詩歌備受喜愛,原因之壹是未受過多少學校教育的人都看得懂。當許多詩人熱衷於搞詩歌試驗時,他卻堅持使用日常語言,描寫自己觀察入微的日常事件。弗羅斯特的許多詩歌反映了他與大自然的貼近。他通過自然來表達壹種象征意義,而不是什麽田園式的思鄉情調。《未選擇的路》是弗羅斯特的壹首名詩,作於1915年。 黃葉林中出條岔路, 無奈壹人難於兼顧, 順著壹條婉蜒小路, 久久佇立極目遠眺, 只見小徑拐進灌木。 接著選擇了另壹條, 同樣清楚似乎更好, 引人踩踏鋪滿茂草, 踏在其間難分彼此, 盡管真有兩條道。 清晨裏躺著兩條路, 壹樣葉被無人踏臟, 願將第壹條來日補, 但知條條相連遠途, 懷疑日後怎能回返。 在很久以後某壹地, 我將嘆息訴說於人, 兩路岔開在樹林裏, 我選的那條足跡稀, 而壹切差別由此起。 Kate Starr (4/29/2007 2:17:00 PM) There are many paths to life from which one can choose. But the difficulty comes when you have narrowed them down. This now becomes a difficult decision knowing the final two are more similar than different. Once made, though, you may secretly hope you’ll get another chance should you fail, but knowing yourself and your ways, you realize that won’t happen, so you muster up the courage to unashamedly accept the path you chose regardless, and you don’t look back. Amanda Hger (4/21/2007 1:25:00 PM) This poem is beautiful and it overwhelmes me. It captures all the feelings you might have while choosing your path in life. Robert Frost speaks about taking a risk; to choose the more difficult way. That is what life is about. Not to follow the stream - It is about finding yourself and choosing what is best for you. Thank you for this amazing poem. Or, first you can read Gene's comments about the Poem "The Road Not Taken" was my favorite poem for many years. Of course it started with an actual experience rather than with something symbolic. When I was much younger, my father, my brothers and I were hiking on old roads in the woods. We came to a fork; and unlike in the poem, we decided to take the one that looked MORE traveled. It turned out to be a good hike; and as I remember, we came out on the highway, and went back to our car without retracing the road back to the fork. But I always remembered the other road, and vowed that I would come back again some day and follow it. Again, unlike the poem, I DID! A few years later, after I had my own driver's license, I dragged a girlfriend on that hike and followed that road. It was LOUSY! The road just fizzled out and led to nowhere! We had to go back the same way we came. The lesson here is the opposite of the one attributed to Frost. He said don't be a conformist, and you'll be better off! I haven't quite lived my life just following the crowd either! I work at a job that very few people do, and my lifestyle and hobbies are anything BUT conformist. I mean, how many people collect antique tractors?!
