Poem credit Robert Frost "The Road Not Taken" it is my favorite

Pie enjoyed it, it seemed. And happy day he hadn't messed up too badly. It had been sometime since he had successfully spoken a haiku. He coughed to hide a small laugh as they counted their toe beans.

Alaric nodded. I do.

He settled to his haunches amd began. Voice rich from years of training it. Following the cadence of the poem perfectly.

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.
