Robert Frost Revisited

The times are ugly, dark and deep,
all my promises I failed to keep;
and every night I could not sleep,
and every night I could not sleep.

So now I am telling it with a sigh
before bidding my final goodbye -
I, I took the less traveled road
that made no difference at all!

Hi Wilfredo. This was the first poem we'd had to memorize when I was in grade school. I still remember it by heart! :) Even though the times might feel 'ugly', there is yet beauty waiting for discovery and acknowledgement. "Que sera, sera", but it's often more and better than what it seems. God bless you and yours....wishing you the best..love to you, Mikki
