Poems for Vanessa
Carl read this poem at the Aber Falls get-together on Oct. 15, 2006. A poem Vanesa loved...
The road less travelled
Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
and sorry I could not take both..
And being 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.
Joana also recorded the singing of the song sung by the Falls and sent some pictures of the day there...
Steve Tyreman let us know that Aber Falls was a favorite spot of Ness' and also shared pictures of her from the time they spent together in Wales in the 1990's
