# Room to Roam explained — Poetry

> Chapter companion for Poetry by George MacDonald.

## What happens

A brief reflection on the paradox of the narrow path leading to boundless freedom, suggesting that constraint in journey yields expansive home.

## Key lines

> Strait is the path? He means we must not roam? Yes; but the strait path leads into a boundless home.

The narrow path is not a restriction but a guide to infinite freedom.

_The chapter reinterprets the narrow way as a passage to limitless belonging._
