| Introduction | I like this poem and believe that it tells a lot about me ROAD LESS TRAVELED Two roads diverged in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, 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 onto 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 took the one less traveled by And that has made all the difference Robert Frost There have been a lot of forks in my life, but only one do I regret with all my heart and that has made all the difference in my life. |

Well, maybe they don't need them, but don't you think that some fish might like a bicycle?
Some fish might "like" to swim around and hide from predators if they were small enough and the bike was big enough to hide them. To determine "like" in a fish would be very hard or maybe beyond determination. Anthropomorphizing animals is not scientific.
