Question

What the two roads symbolise in the poem "The Road Not Taken"​

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

In Robert Frost's poem "The Road Not Taken," the speaker finds himself facing a fork on the road where he is traveling. One road has now become two, and he is forced to choose one of them if he wishes to continue his journey.

The two roads symbolize the choices we have to make in life. Just like the speaker of the poem, if we wish to move forward, we must make decisions throughout the way. Upon choosing one road, upon making a choice, we are, most of the time, giving up on the other for good. In the poem, the speaker chooses the road less traveled by. That means he wishes to be different, to do what others are not doing, to go where they did not choose to go.
