The Other Road

Robert Frost took the less traveled road,

And it made all the difference to him.

The road I've taken is much more bumpy

with turns and twist and bends.

I must have taken the other road,

That Robert didn't choose.

Where the leaves are brown and trodden,

where many people stood.

I turned around and retrace my steps,

To where the two roads fused.

Like Robert Frost, the poet once did,

I took the road less used.
