Answer:
According to the poet, the life of an average Indian woman passes through three main stages- as a maiden, as a bride and as a mother. Each of this stage is described by the colour of bangles. Thus, the main theme of the poem is that the bangles are a part and parcel of a woman’s life in India. Each colour or type of the bangles represents each stage in her life. Silver and blue or pink represent the stage of maidenhood. Yellow (the morning of wedding), fiery red (passionate longings in the bride’s heart, symbolic of her bridal night) are representative of the girl’s wedding. Gold and grey colours represent motherhood and matriarchy.
