Compare and contrast the symbol of "the road" in walt whitman's "song of the open road" and robert frost's "the road not taken."

The Song of the Open Road and The Road Not Taken show the difference between Walt Whitman and Robert Frohavest in their perpectives on roads. To Walt Whitman going on the Open Road is like going on an adventure and revelling in all the sights and sounds that one passes whereas for Robert Frost when he says for example, Two roads diverged in the yellow wood" and that philosophically the road one takes in life determines your experiences and perspectives on life so that say someone who never leaves the say small town he/she grew up in will most likely have a more narrow perspective on life than someone who ventured out in the world and travelled and encountered other cultures etc.
