From Wikipedia:

"Robert Lee Frost (March 26, 1874 – January 29, 1963) was an American poet. He is highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech. His work frequently employed settings from rural life in New England in the early twentieth century, using them to examine complex social and philosophical themes. A popular and often-quoted poet, Frost was honored frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry."

Poems by Robert Frost include:
The Road Not Taken
Nothing Gold Can Stay
Fire and Ice

I love this quote from one if his poems:

"Two roads diverge in a yellow wood, and I take the one less traveled by..."

Is it okay, if I post that poem here?

It's fine.

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.

I dislike Frost for many reasons xD But I did his poem Fire and Ice for a poetry voice contest and won! :D

Fire and Ice

Some say the world will end in fire
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire,
I hold with those who favour fire.
But if it were to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction,
Ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

That's a good poem too.
