I read poems because I need sparseness. I need space to both hear the words of the writers, but also find space within me to feel and to wonder.
Such it is for me this morning with American Poet Robert Frost.
His poem is called The Road Not Taken. But it is this stanza on the road less travelled by that peaks my awareness this morning.
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.
Here’s to thoughtful choices and celebration.
His poem is rich and so timeless! I, and I speak for many, are grateful you’ve chosen the less traveled road, Tenneson!
Thx Jeremy. So good to go in it together.
