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 far
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 traveled by
And that has made all the difference.

Dua gambar diambil di Perlis. Perjalanan waktu pagi yang mendung dan singgah sebentar di gerai tepi jalan untuk membeli ikan pekasam. Ada dua gerai si situ; satu di mana pak cik sedang menyiang ikan dan isterinya menjual dua besen ikan pekasam yang sudah dibungkus. Di satu gerai satu lagi sipenjual sedang tawar menawar dengan seorang China yang ingin membeli sekor ikan belida sepanjang setengah meter, lupa nak ambil gambarnya
Di belakang kedai ada jalan tar hanya untuk pejalan kaki atau menaiki motosikal ke tepi tasik. Di kanan jalan terdapat kebun-kebun sayur kecil menanam kacang bendir dan terung. Aku tidak ke tepi tasik kerana kerana terpaksa meneruskan perjalanan dan ketika itu hujan turun renyai-renyai.
Dalam memilih di antara dua jalan yang berlum pernah dilalui tentu ada gerak hati mana satukah yang akan diredah. Jika hendak yang mudah ikut sahaja apa yang di telah dilalui oleh ramai orang. Namun tidak kurang yang ingin cari yang mencabar dan berharap untuk menemui sesuatu yang baru serta lebih bermakna.
sayu nya..
