重温此诗，谨以此诗，纪念此刻心情——楚茨 2018/08/10
佛罗斯特（1874—1963）美国诗人，1874年3月26日生于旧金山，1963年1月29日在波士顿逝世。他曾徒步漫游许多地方，被认为是新英格兰的农民诗人。弗罗斯特的诗歌最初未引起人们注意。1912年举家迁居英国，出版了几种诗集，得到好评。1915年回到美国，诗名日盛，获得4次普利策奖。他的诗歌在形式上与传统诗歌相近，不像浪漫派、唯美派那样矫揉造作。不追求外在的美，往往以描写新英格兰的自然景色或风土人情开始，渐渐进入这里的境界，朴实无华，但却细致含蓄，耐人寻味。
黄色的树林里分出两条路，
可惜我不能同时去涉足，
我在那路口久久伫立，
我向着一条路极目望去，
直到它消失在丛林深处。
但我却选了另外一条路，
它荒草萋萋，十分幽寂，
显得更诱人、更美丽，
虽然在这两条小路上，
都很少留下旅人的足迹，
虽然那天清晨落叶满地，
两条路都未经脚印污染。
呵，留下一条路等改日再见！
但我知道路径延绵无尽头，
恐怕我难以再回返。
也许多少年后在某个地方，
我将轻声叹息把往事回顾，
一片树林里分出两条路，
而我选了人迹更少的一条，
从此决定了我一生的道路。
The Road Not Taken
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.
