The Road Less Travelled By

Found it! ^_^

For reference purpose.

.....

The Road not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

- Robert Frost

Sorry...couldn't help myself..as a Frost fan...

The poem's entitled The Road not Taken, not 'The Road Less Travelled By'.

I feel bad for being so anal...haha

But this is my favourite poem ever. I actually memorised it... ^^;

Is alright. Being anal means you get the job down perfectly.

..... you memorised it >_> That takes dedication. It is one of my favourite poems, and it took me forever to recall who wrote it. There was much of going through poetry books -_-;;

Lovely poem!

Unfortunately, my gamegeek-self is jumping up and down, pointing and screaming "That's it! That's exactly how I feel when I go through the damn dungeons!" (Because my direction sense is terribly sucky, unless that path ends in dead end, I don't usually go back). ^^;

This does not happen in real life because I am lazy.

*laughs*

Don't I know it. The only time I ever learned the damn map was when I played 'Silent Hill,' 'cos dammit I'd rather know where I'm running to.

But dungeons. BAH! BAH! Playing KH during the earlier stages was irritating, I couldn't remember directions and I ended up getting lost and spending more time in places when I should've been somewhere else.

Being lazy is good.
