Question

Using evidence from the text, explain what the "roads" symbolize in the poem “the road not taken”

Answer 1

The Road Not Taken' by Robert Frost is a poem narrated by a lone traveler confronted with two roads, symbolizing the journey of life and the decisions we make on that journey. The narrator chose the path that was 'grassy and wanted wear,' which demonstrates the desire many of us have for individuality and adventure.

Answer 2

Answer: The roads in the poem called The Road Not Taken symbolizes struggle in the character, whether which path the character should take. The character thinks about it twice before making the wrong move. Also the two roads symbolize the choices that one has to make in life. It is very important to make the right choice because we can never retrace our path and go back. One road would lead on to another and there is no coming back.
