Which Way and Why Stay? Exploring Frost’s Iconic Poems

In this edition of Stay Lit, Miles Ellison and Cambria Shaw explore two of Robert Frost’s most beloved poems:“The Road Not Taken” and “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening.” Though often quoted and widely taught, these poems offer more than meets the eye. What do they really say about choice, solitude, and the tension between action and reflection? Are they as hopeful as we remember—or is there something more complex beneath the surface? Join us as we take a closer look at the paths we choose, the moments we pause, and the meaning we make along the way.
