Answer:

He describes the choices as roads and explains his experience traveling the roads with metaphors.  The major theme of this poem is making choices in life and the author uses this situation to develop his poem by describing the decisions as roads. In the beginning of the poem the speaker places himself in a yellow wood. Therefore the season is probably fall, a time for change and color. The yellow wood symbolizes change. Then he says he stands at the fork of the road where the two roads split. The poem says he looks down as far as he can, which makes the road feel “long”, then it eventually disappears when it says it bent in the undergrowth. Which means he doesn't know for sure where this path will lead him. Then the speaker decides to take the “other” path. At first he says that the path is “perhaps the better claim”. It seems like the speaker thinks this path is better because it appears that the opportunities are greater. But then he contradicts himself in the next couple of lines by saying: “Though as for that the passing there had worn them really about the same”. Robert Frost uses imagery to convey that the speaker is not choosing the more difficult path. Contrarily, he isn’t choosing the “road less traveled” either. Both paths are equally untraveled, which I think is a point Frost wants to reinforce by repeating this idea at the beginning of the next stanza. The poem says: “And both that morning equally lay in leaves no step had trodden black”. The final stanza begins with: “ I shall be telling this with a sigh somewhere ages and ages hence”. I think it is unclear if he is looking back in regret or in satisfaction. The last few lines of the poem conclude it and makes it seem like one path has changed his life still unclear if it is in a bad or good way.

I hope this helps.
