Explanation:
Imagery is the use of certain words to make a narration more descriptive and vivid in detail.
Imagery is used by writers a lot to make the reader "see from their mind's eye" a scene that is being described as if they were there.
<span>The theme of "The Road Not Taken" deals with choice. The speaker is standing in a wood trying to figure out which road to take. He eventually takes the one "less travelled by," and speaks highly of his decision: "that has made all the difference."
As the poem progresses we find that there is no right or wrong choice in the speaker's mind. the paths are "as just as fair" as one another. Also, both "equally" are leaf covered. So it is not that he chose the right road, but that he "took" the road. Either road would've done just fine.</span>
The correct answer is number of words.
When you are analyzing a poem, you are trying to find its meaning, or rather, the theme that the poem is presenting. There are many ways to do this, but the most common one is to interpret the literary devices the author used, the literal and figurative meaning of his/her words, and the structure of the poem itself.
Whether the poet used just a few or a lot of words has no particular impact on the theme of that particular poem.
To be in the progressive tense, a verb must have a "ing."
I'd say this means he wants forgiveness or reconciliation :)
