My favourite poem

is written by Robert Frost.

It is called

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, 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
Had worn them really about the same,
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 doubted if I should ever come back.
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 travelled by,
And that has made all the difference. 
 

My poems

When I can't see the sun 
I'm looking without seeing 
When I can't hear the wind
I'm hearing without listening 
When I talk without meaning
I'm talking without thinking 
When I can't feel the rain
I'm feeling without sensing 
But 
When my heart is pounding
When my breath is shortening
When my sight is misty and
My speech is gone
When fear takes over 
Who am I then? 
In this great universe
Prejudice lives on 
In this great universe
You still have to consider 
Colour
Sex
Weight
Looks
Race 
In this great universe
God is shaking his head 
Thinking of starting over. 
 
Life is like a river
Changing as it flows
Towards nowhere and everywhere 
Life is like a river
And the shores so hard to reach
Reaching out doesn't take you there 
Life is like a river
Gentle and slow
As long as you don't hit the stones 
Life is like a river
You decide where to go
But the mainstream is hard to get out of 
Life is like a river
Gives you bumps and bruises
But the cool waters tend to your wounds.
