Storyboard Text
- Slide: 1
- The Road Not Taken, is a poem written by Robert Frost, a British poet during the WWI era. The poem starts by setting the scene in a forest where the narrator is standing at the fork in the road. The speaker regrets that they can't travel both paths at once. He pauses and stands for a long time, considering which path to take. Staring down both of the paths he is standing in front of as far as he can.

- Alas the narrator wasting all the time that he had, he finally decides to go down the path with the grass on it. He does this by proclaiming that he would keep the other path for another day. In our mind, we know that likely this day will never come and the narrator will probably never travel this path again.
- The narrator examines each path thoroughly. He notices that both paths seem to be the exact same with the same amount of passage on each path. The only difference being one seems grassier than the other.

- At this point in the poem, there is a time skip to long into the future. Here, the narrator is older and he states that long ago he came across the split in the road. In the final stanza, he states that the road he picked was the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference in the outcome of his life.
