Lesson- 7 (Poem)
The Tree
Summary
The poet has done a symbolic representation of trees in this poem. Here, trees are refer to woman who have been healed and are ready to move out of their houses to fulfil their primary purpose – to renew the forest of mankind. As woman have remained indoors, the forest has become empty, the birds and insects rendered shelter less. The sun’s rays do not have the tree trucks and leaves to fall upon and thus, reach the earth, she says that the forest will be full of trees the next morning. The roots of the tress are working hard to separate from the floor of the veranda where they have remained fixed. The leaves and branches are moving towards the glass windows. They are desperate to move out just like a newly discharged patient who has not recovered completely, moves to the exit door of the hospital of a hurry. The poet if sitting in her house with the doors of the open. Shi is writing letters but does not mention this movement of the trees. It is night time, the sky is clear & a bright moon is visible. She can smell the leaves & lichen which seem to be calling out desperately. She hears the glass of the window pane breaking. The trees are moving out and the fast blowing wind embraces them. As the trees have reached the forest, the tall and strong oak tree ouearshadaws the moon and it seems that the moon has been broken into several pieces.

Questions I
1. Find in the first stanza, three things that can not happen in a treeless forest.

Answer The three things that can not happen in a treeless forest are – the sitting of a bird on trees, The hiding of insects and the sun burying its feet in the shadow of the forest.

2. What picture do these words create in your mind”… sun bury its feet in shadow …”? What could the poet mean by sun’s feet?
āĻļāĻŦ্āĻĻāĻেāĻāĻাā§° āĻā§°িā§āϤে āϤোāĻŽাā§° āĻŽāύāϞৈ āĻেāύে āϧ⧰াāĻŖা āĻāĻšুāĻে”… āĻŦেāϞিāĻোā§ąে āĻāĻā§° āĻাঁāϤ āĻĨā§, ‘āĻŦেāϞিā§° āĻā§°ি’ āĻŽাāύে āĻāĻŦিā§ে āĻি āĻŦুāĻাāĻŦ āĻŦিāĻাā§°িāĻে?
Answer: By the words mentioned in the question, we got the idea of the sun rays fall on the earth. Without trees there would be no shadow on the ground, the rays fall directly on the ground, in a forest with trees, the shadow hides the sun rays that it seems that the sun is burning its in the shadow that fall from the trees.

Questions II
1. Where are the trees in the poem? What do their roots, their leaves and their twigs do?
āĻāĻŦিāϤাāĻোāϤ āĻāĻāĻŦোā§° āĻ’āϤ āĻāĻে? āĻāĻāĻŦোā§° āĻļিāĻĒা āĻĄাāϞ, āĻĒাāϤ āĻāĻĻিāĻŦোā§°ে āĻি āĻā§°িāĻে?
Answer: In the poem, the trees are trapped in in the poot’s house. Their roots work all night to disengage themselves from the racks in the veranda floor. The leaves try very hard to move towards the glass and put a lot pressure on it so that it breaks while the small twigs get stiff with exertion.

2. What does the poet compare their branches to?
āĻāĻŦিā§ে āĻĄাāϞāĻŦোā§°āĻ āĻিāĻšā§° āϞāĻāϤ āϤুāϞāύা āĻā§°িāĻে।
Answer: The poet compares the branches to newly discharged patients of a hospital. The large branches of the trees become cramped due to the roof above them and when they get free they rush stumblingly to the outside world. While doing so, they look half-shocked like the patients, who wait for a long time to get out of the hospital.

Answer: a) At the beginning of the third stanza, the poet says that the full moon is shining in the open sky in the fresh night.

b) At the end of the stanza, she described that the moon breaks into pieces like a broken mirror & shines on the heads of the tallest oak trees. AS the trees move outside, they cover some of the shine of the moon and it can be seen only in parts. This is why, it seems that the moon broken into pieces.

Answer: When the trees move out of the house, the glasses break and the whispers of the trees vanish, leaving the house silent.

3. Why do you think the poet does not mention “the departure of the forest from the house “in her letter? (could it be that we are unexpected that they embarrass us? Think about this again when you answer the next set of questions.)
(āĻāĻŦিā§ে āĻিāĻ ি āĻāύāϤ āĻāĻāĻŦোā§° āĻā§°ā§° āĻোāϤাāϞ⧰ āĻĒā§°া āĻā§°ে āĻŦিāĻā§°া āĻāĻĨাāĻো āĻিā§ āĻোā§ąা āύাāĻিāϞ āĻŦুāϞি āϤুāĻŽি āĻাāĻŦা? (āϤেāĻঁ āĻāĻĨাāĻোāĻ āϞাāĻ āĻĒাāĻŦ āĻŦুāϞিā§ে āĻোā§ąা āύাāĻিāϞ āύেāĻি? āĻĒā§°ā§ąā§°্āϤী āĻāϤ্āϤ⧰āĻেāĻāĻা āĻā§°োāϤেāĻ āĻāĻāĻো āĻāĻĨা āĻাāĻŦিāĻŦা)
Answer: The poet hardly mentions about “the departure of the forest from the house” in her letters because it is humans, who did not care for nature in the first place. So may be, the poet now thinks that nobody would be interested in knowing about the efforts that the trees are making in order to set themselves free. If others men cared about the trees, they would not have destroyed them. It seems that this whole beauty of trees moving back to forests can be seen and felt only by the poet.

1. Does the poem present a conflict between man and nature? Compare it with A Tiger in the zoo. Is the poet suggesting that plants and trees, used for ‘interior decoration’ in cities while forests are cut down, are imprisoned and need to “break out”?

Answer: Yes the poem presents a conflict between man and nature. Man has always caused much harm ton nature, without reali3ing that it actually is a harm to the human race. Humans cut down forests for forest goods, which has destroyed a lot of natural beauty. By kipping trees inside walls and denying them their natural home, they are denying them their freedom. That is why? The trees want to move out. Similarly in the poem, A Tiger in the zoo, the poet shaws that animals feel baunded by cages and they want to get free and run wild in the open

2. On the others hand, Adrienne Rich has been known to use trees as a metaphor for human beings: this is a recurrent image in her paltry. What new meanings emerge from the poem if you take its trees to be symbolic of this particular meaning?
āĻāύāĻšাāĻে āĻāύ্āĻĄ্ā§°িā§েāύে ā§°িāĻ্ āĻāύাāĻাāϤ āĻāĻāĻ āĻŽাāύুāĻšā§° ā§°ূāĻĒāĻ āĻšিāĻাāĻĒে āĻŦ্āĻ¯ā§ąāĻšাā§°ā§° āĻŦাāĻŦে āĻāύাāĻাāϤ।āϤুāĻŽি āϝāĻĻি āĻāĻāĻ āϏেāĻ āĻšিāĻাāĻĒে āϞোā§ąা āϤেāύেāĻš’āϞে āϤোāĻŽাā§° āĻŽāύāϞৈ āĻি āύāϤুāύ āϧাā§°āĻŖা āĻāĻšে āĻāĻŦিāϤাāĻোāĻ āϞৈ।
Answer: If trees have been used as a metaphor of human beings, then the poem would mean that like the trees, humans too want to break free of the boundaries that life puts on them. Modern life with all kinds of physical comfort has also brought a lot of moral downfall. Our lives howe become busy and we have become selfish and greedy. Man would also want to enjoy the beauty of nature and & go out in the open and be free, just like trees.
