American poet: Robert Frost
There are two roads in the yellow forest, but unfortunately I can't set foot in them at the same time.
I stood at that intersection for a long time. I looked at a road and looked far away.
Until it disappeared into the jungle. But I chose another path.
Lush, lonely, more attractive and more beautiful.
Although there are few travelers' footprints on this path.
There were fallen leaves all over the ground that morning, and neither road was polluted by footprints.
Ah, leave a way, see you another day! But I know this road has no end.
I'm afraid I can't go back. Maybe somewhere in a few years.
I will look back with a sigh: two roads diverged in a forest.
And I chose a less traveled road, which decided my life path from now on.

Writing background:
19 13, Robert Frost, a 40-year-old but still unknown poet, wrote to a student from England: "I am one of the few people who have my own theories, and I hope to change the status quo of American literature." At that time, after years of preparation and brewing, he had made a major choice in life, that is, to devote himself to poetry creation.
And published poetry in Britain. This decision later made the poet a great success, and at the same time effectively improved the status of American poetry in the world literary world. Two years later, in this poem describing natural scenery, the poet euphemistically reflected the hesitation and confusion he experienced when choosing the road of life.
This profound philosophical poem shows people's difficult mood when they are at a crossroads in real life. In poetry, the poet chooses a lonely and thorny road, just as the poet chooses a life of writing poetry, which will not bring rich materials to real life. After the poet makes a choice. At the same time, I regret that "you can't have both."
We can only choose one road, go on firmly, and only sigh with regret in the memories after many years. This poem is unpretentious, fresh and meaningful, with profound implications. The poem is divided into four paragraphs, the first, third and fourth lines of each paragraph, and the second and fifth lines rhyme respectively, with free rhythm and firmness, full of regret. The whole poem has a beautiful rhythm and conveys an elegant sense of music when read. ?
