176 - 9th - The road not taken

Originally clicked and uploaded by - Pratosh Dwivedi - 9th June'08

I saw this place and it immediately reminded me of the famous poem by Robert Frost - "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

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 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 took this photo during my last transit break in Frankfurt, Germany. I never posted it as I always had better options. But today when I am posting it out of necessity, it isn't looking any less beautiful.
