Of all the poems Rich has read (not many), the Robert Frost poem "The Road Not Taken" stands out. One has a decision to make in life. Take the easier and secure path which most take or the unknown path chosen by few. The potential consequence of the path less taken is that it can lead you into a dark forest. How will you respond?
