The Road Not Taken Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAB CDCCD EFEEF GHGGITwo roads diverged in a yellow wood | A |
And sorry I could not travel both | B |
And be one traveler long I stood | A |
And looked down one as far as I could | A |
To where it bent in the undergrowth | B |
- | |
Then took the other as just as fair | C |
And having perhaps the better claim | D |
Because it was grassy and wanted wear | C |
Though as for that the passing there | C |
Had worn them really about the same | D |
- | |
And both that morning equally lay | E |
In leaves no step had trodden black | F |
Oh I kept the first for another day | E |
Yet knowing how way leads on to way | E |
I doubted if I should ever come back | F |
- | |
I shall be telling this with a sigh | G |
Somewhere ages and ages hence | H |
Two roads diverged in a wood and I | G |
I took the one less traveled by | G |
And that has made all the difference | I |
