Using symbolism, Frost suggests that the speaker of this poem is taking the harder of the two roads presented before them, because the road the speaker chooses, “leaves no step had trodden black” (12). Frost helps to express this theme by using symbolism to portray a road as one’s journey of life. In the closing, line 20 of the poem further reestablishes the theme when it states, “that has made all the difference”, meaning that making the decision of which road to take for themselves is the important key for a successful future. In lines 2-3, he expresses the emotions of doubt and confusion by saying, “And sorry I could not travel/ And be one traveler, long I stood”, which explains how the speaker contemplated their decision of which road to take. The main theme of the poem that Frost attempts to convey is how important the decisions that one makes can be, and how they affect one’s future. The poets creative faculty gets enlivened when he faces the problem of having to choose one of the two roads at a bifurcation.
