ROBERT FROST


1. I think the “fork in the road” symbolizes decisions in life. You have to pick a direction to take your life, and the choice is always your own.

2. As the first line says, “Two roads diverged in a yellow wood” I would assume the season is autumn.

3. The poet decides which road to take based on the one that was less traveled by to be on his own path

4. I link the one less travelled by is the way of life that is more unique. The way of life that doesn’t just try to fit in with its surroundings. The line about it making all the difference is interesting. Living a unique life that you can be proud of definetly makes a difference compared to one that is alrea dy pathed out.

5. I think the poet is sorry he couldn’t travel both roads because he is adventurous. He wants to know what destination both paths would take. Again, if he was symbolizing life with the roads, it would make sense that you can’t travel both.

JOHN LENNON

1. John Lennon was trying to tell the world to imagine what life could be like without everything that is bad in the world.

2. Music helps make the entire thing more memorable. Every time the tune comes on, you know what you are listening to.

3. Imagine there's no heaven -- think about what it is like without the concept of it

Imagine all the people living for today -- Seize the day

Imagine there's no countries -- everyone is united

Nothing to kill or die for -- No war

No religion -- No more disagreements

Imagine no possessions -- Nothing to fight for
