Robert Frost known for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech, Frost frequently wrote about settings from rural life in New England in the early 20th century, using them to examine complex social and philosophical themes.

Meaning of the poem
The Road Not Taken is a well-known poem about making choices in our life. The speaker, when trying to choose which road to take, looks for the road that seems less worn. At the end of the poem, the speaker asserts that choosing the road less traveled "has made all the difference"—the suggestion being that he or she has led a life of nonconformity, and is happier because of it.

‘O Captain! My Captain!’ was authored by famous American poet Walt Whitman. It alluded to President Abraham Lincoln’s death in 1865. The poem was a part of his controversially famous collection of poems “Leaves of Grass”. The poetic collection continuously was revised to add new poetic pieces from Walt Whitman as a result. ‘O Captain! My Captain!’ at the time of its publication became an intensely popular poem for classic, read in schools over the years to come. For Whitman, the praise was redundant by all means. Commenting on his poetry, he said that the audience of his time appreciated poetry with form, rhyme, and meter, still unfamiliar to the free-verse concept. The poem moves its reader with utter undertones of remorse and sadness over the conclusion of the Civil War and its dramatic ramifications later, rendering a powerful period poem in the process.

The title of the poem, ‘O Captain! My Captain!’ refers to Abraham Lincoln as a captain of the ship. Here, the “ship” is a symbol of the civil war fought for liberating the slaves. According to the poet, the ship is sailing nearer to the shore, meaning the war is about to end. They have achieved their coveted goal. Being a moment of victory, everyone is happy. However, they have to consider, at the same time, that their metaphorical “captain” of the ship is no more. When he lived, he guided the multitude with his fatherly guidance. After his death, the nation is fatherless. In this agony, the poet writes the verses. However, the mood of the poem is not gloomy. Even if they have lost Lincoln, the dream Lincoln has seen is not lost.

Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers,
but to be fearless in facing them.
Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain, but
for the heart to conquer it.
Let me not crave in anxious fear to be saved,
but hope for the patience to win my freedom.
Grant me that I may not be a coward, feeling
Your mercy in my success alone; but let me find
the grasp of Your hand in my failure.

-Rabindranath Tagore

Lyrics of the poem-
Some say the world will end in fire,
          Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
     I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
     I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
        Is also great
And would suffice.

The world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers:
Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon!
This Sea that bares her bosom to the moon;
The winds that will be howling at all hours,
And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers;
For this, for every thing, we are out of tune;
It moves us not.—Great God! I’d rather be
A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn;
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea,
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;
Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea;
Or hear old Triton blow his wreathèd horn.

Central Idea : 
The world is too much with us” is a sonnet by William Wordsworth, published in 1807, is one of the central figures of the English  movement. The poem laments the withering connection between humankind and nature, blaming industrial society for replacing that connection with material pursuits.

If you can’t be a pine on the top of the hill,

Be a scrub in the valley—but be

The best little scrub by the side of the rill,

Be a bush if you can’t be a tree

 If you can’t be a bush be a bit of the grass,

And some highway happier make;

If you can’t be a muskie then just be a bass

But be the liveliest bass in the lake!

We can’t all be captains, we’ve got to be crew,

There’s something for all of us here

There’s big work to do and there’s lesser to do,

And the task we must do is the near.

If you can’t be a highway then just be a trait

If you can’t be the sun, be a star,

It isn’t by size that you win or you fail

Be the best of whatever you are!
