A Worn Path

Having spent many years going to North Devon for holidays or to visit family, I had never until about two years ago ever visited the area that is known as Croyde Bay. Situated on the road out of Braunton (which is its nearest largest village hub with lots of shops and other services), it is on the coast that faces the Atlantic Ocean. How to get here For most people who are travelling from anywhere in the country apart from Cornwall, then access to Croyde is generally through Barnstaple - the…

Attacks on routing protocols can cause legitimate traffic to flow over unsecure paths and create various types of security exposure for higher layer protocols ranging from eavesdropping to denial of service. Several routing protocols are used to exchange network topology and routing table information between routers. Commonly used intra-domain routing protocols are the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF). The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the current…

In Robert Frost’s poem, “The Road Not Taken”, the writer takes the reader on a journey of two paths he observed, his decision making process, and his reflection on how he felt about that decision. Throughout the poem, Frost gives descriptive words to help the reader visualize the subject of his writing. Frost keeps the wording fairly simple, which conveys his message easily to most any reader, without prolonged interpretation of his language. The poem has themes of decision making,…

choose, but he is unsure which path he should take, and wishes to go in both ways. Although he finally chose the path to go after a while, he never was satisfied with his choice, and regretted and wish to go in other road. However, both path are same and the grass in both paths equally look fresh and unworn. However, after Frost chose the path he wanted to go, he wanted to keep the other path for another day and come back to it. No matter how long he took to chose the path he liked, he always…

Frost, must choose between two paths in the wood but is having trouble deciding which one he should take. He also reveals many emotions such as regret, indecision, decision, and doubt. Correspondingly the poem contains another literary element which is imagery. Imagery is being used to describe the surroundings in the wood. In this poem, the poet is very indecisive. In line one it states, “Two roads diverged…

“A Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost describes a man making a choice to take the road less traveled. The speaker makes a choice and is not able to go back to the path he did not choose. The path chosen may led to the same place as the one you did not chose; the difference is the mindset between you and the people who chose the more worn path. In the poem “Bells” the speaker is living a life controlled by bells. (Poe stanza I) What a world of merriment their melody foretells!” This may not seem…

Theses Statement The speaker of “The Road not taken”,while he travelled, finds himself, alone in a fork path, in the woods. He considers two paths in the road, which were equally worn and overlaid with un-trodden leaves. He is caught in a dilema of deciding which path to trod, finally, he decides to choose one, “the one less travelled by”.(DiYanni,2008) He decideds to save the other path for another day, knowing fully well that he is unlikely to travel by this route again. “I doubted if I…

The poem “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost is about a man, who was ambulating through the woods, came across two roads and found it hard to optate a path. Many people seem to think that this poem is about being different and taking the road no one else has taken. Then again, I optically discern a man. Who is highly indecisive and discombobulated, and needs to make a decision in order to move forward. We descry his indecisiveness in each stanza. Each stanza has the same pattern. He tests out a…

Most people by the time they hit their late teens have been faced with at least one major life decision. Some of the options might have even looked the same. Without knowing what the future holds, you are forced to choose a path. That is the main idea behind the poem I chose to write about. Some might interpret Robert Frost’s poem “The Road Not Taken” as a message to stand out from the crowd and take the roads less traveled by. However, upon further analysis of the voice and symbols, the theme…
