Disabled people are the most important part of our society and they should be treated with justice. Society should deliver to them according to their needs.

uses Personification‚ Alliteration‚ and Imagery to create a picture in the readers mind‚ to show the difficulty of his decision to “take the road less traveled by” and to express the necessity of the making a choice.
