Detailed explanation-1: -The poet says that as he was one person, he could travel on one road only. He had to choose one out of these two roads Yellow wood means a forest with leaves which are wearing out and they have turned yellow in colour – the season of autumn.
Detailed explanation-2: -(i) The poet sees two roads diverging in a yellow wood. Perhaps it was autumn and both the roads were covered with dead or fallen yellow leaves. The first one went down in ‘the undergrowth’ of the forest. The other road was equally beautiful, grassy and ‘wanted wear’.
Detailed explanation-3: -Explanation: This poem by Robert Frost describes the dilemma a walker faces when the path he is treading diverges into “two roads.” The two roads are, in fact, nearly identical.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: The poet took the second road. The poet chose the second road over the first thinking that he would come to it some other day.
Detailed explanation-5: -Ans. The traveller finds himself on a road that diverged into the yellow woods. He faces the problem of choosing between the two roads as he wants to choose the best.
