The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost
Subject
Robert Frost's main theme, "The Road Not Taken," is making decisions.
The speaker in a travel poem comes across a road or a fork-in-the-road. Here he or she
decides a lot. The speaker in the poem deliberately tries to take the road off the beaten
track or simply because he doesn't like the road with the curve in it. Therefore, external
influences make up his mind for him.
Form
Consists of four stanzas with five lines in each. It's rhyme scheme is
ABAAB, meaning that the last word of the first line rhymes with the last word of the
third and forth. The last word of the second line rhymes with the last word of the last
line in the stanza. This pattern is repeated in all of the four stanzas.
Point of View
The Road Not Taken is told from a first-person point of view. The
narrator describes the events that happened to him, using "I" to describe himself. This
point of view allows the reader to understand the character's thoughts and actions to
the full extent.
