Answer:
What is the poem "Your World" by Georgia Douglas Johnson about?
The poem is about self-discovery that leads to new worlds of feeling, acting and living in ways you never thought were possible before. The poet likens herself to a little bird whose wings were at first pressed closely to her sides, which describes the state of one who is conditioned by circumstance, such as a home environment or acquired feelings of inferiority, to be complacent, fearful and reticent, but who soon realizes that there is an exciting world of endless possibilities out there that beckons. For this reason the poet began shattering all those things that delimit and make her hesitant to explore worlds beyond that she already knows, and describes the act of doing so as surprisingly easy, and the freedom and levels of success she has achieved and she knows she still will achieve, as rapturous and powerful. The poem is inspiring and calls for everyone to be brave and willing to reach out for a life that is real, fulfilling and true. Thanks for the opportunity to answer the question. God Bless You.
