How did granny work out the problem of not being able to climb down the trees?
Answers
Explanation:
This poem by Ruskin’s Bond poetically describes his granny’s
love for trees. The poet begins the poem by calling her ‘genius’ as she could
climb any type of tree easily. She had learnt it from her brother when she was
six; and she had been climbing trees since then. As she grew old, she was advised
not to climb trees as it looked disgraceful, however, she did not pay heed to
this advice.
It was feared that one day she would fall. But she never
fell! However, one day when she was alone at home, she climbed a tree, but
could not come down. She was rescued from the tree trop. After that she fell
ill; the doctor was called; he took her temperature and advised her bed rest
for a week. Everyone felt relieved as this would curb granny’s tree-climbing.
Quite contrary to everyone’s expectations, the granny grew miserable lying in
the bed. Obviously she was missing tree climbing. She sat up on her bed and declared
she would not be confined to bed any longer. She called the poet’s father and
instructed him to have a house built for her in the treetop.
The dutiful dad did the granny’s wish. With the poet’s help
he built a beautiful treetop house for the granny. The granny moved into the
treetop house. The poet took her meals up the treetop house. She had a
wonderful time living in the treetop house.
