To summarize Robert Frost’s Mose famous poem, we must understand originally that poetry usually has a deeper meaning and you really have to look into things with a lot of text. Let’s begin: The poem describes a person standing at a fork in the road in a wood, unsure which one to take. Frost uses the road as a metaphor for the journey of life. Each decision we make is like a turn in the road, and choosing what to do with our lives can be like choosing which turn to take at a fork in the road.
