Summary: The Road Not Taken
Journeys illustrate the voyage between places of interest. They are demonstrated by expressing to the audience the hardship and mixed emotions you go through to the destination. Some examples of positive effects on those who embark on a mission are that it hinders them to get out of their comfort zone and helps them appreciate what they have, if a problem occurs while embarking on your voyage it will have to be resolved to make the mission you board on possible. The text analysed “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost and the type of text is poetry. My second choice of text was “The Wizard of Oz” by Victor Fleming the text type is a movie. Some possible techniques analysed are rhyme, imagery, symbolism, long shot, up shot and a full shot.

Therefore the text symbolizes the choice of journeys undertaken prior. Furthermore in the movie ‘The Wizard of Oz’ we observe Dorothy, Glinda and the wicked witch of the west.

In relation to “The Road Not Taken” and “The Wizard of Oz” in both texts we establish the uncertainty of choice chosen and the different journey’s they embark
