Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Since you're already using "the road less traveled by", I'd suggest you also use "stopping by woods on a snowy evening"!.!.!.the style and thematic connection is that both reflect on life and choices!. In the road less traveled by, he says that it was the choice of the less traveled road that made him who he is and that sometimes taking the more difficult path is the only way to achieve more than the norm!.!.!.whereas the other poem speaks about choices in a different way, although both poems have a nostalgic voice and an introspective, patient air to them, the second poem says that although the "woods are lovely dark and deep" he has "miles to go before he sleeps", meaning that there is an attraction to the peace and comfort of death, but he chooses to "go on" because there is much left to be done and the "woods" will always be there!. The visuals on both are quite sharp and the contrast is visible!.!.!.in the one you've chosen, you have two paths where one is clearly well worn and the other overgrown!.!.!.in the second, you have the white silence all around the speaker, with only the horse and its breath showing signs of life!.!.!.and the dark, lovely woods, a pure counterpoint to the wide open white space he is in when he makes his observation!.
