Question

1:Why does the poet write his and his village's names on the boats?
2:what do you understand from the term blooms of the dawn?
3:why does he load shiuli flowers in his boats?

Answer 1

1

• The boy writes his name and the name of his village on paper boats in big black letters and floats them on a stream. He does this with the hope that someone in a strange land would find the boats and take them. If the person does so, he/she would come to know about the boy and who he is.

2

• It means that the flowers of the early morning, when light first appears in the sky will be carried safely to land during the night.

3

• The poet (child) filled the paper boats with shiuli flowers as a gift for the one who finds his boat on the distant land.

Hope you got the answer ....
