Answer 2

No it doesn't look like either poems use figurative language

Answer 3

What about personification in the Snowy Woods poem?

"My little horse must think it queer"

Frost continues the personification.

Answer 4

Snowy Woods figurative language used..

"To watch his woods fill up with snow."

"He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake."

Road not Taken
"Because it was grassy and wanted wear"
"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference"
