Question

How does the bird show her 'barred face' identity mask

Answer 1

The bird mentioned in the poem has black markings similar to a mask. Looking beyond the physical, it seems to refer to the fact that her family sees her as she truly is. Throughout the day she may wear many masks, however, itis impossible to hide one's true self at the end of the day.

Answer 2

In the poem, “The Laburnum Top” written by Ted Huges, the bird showed her 'barred face' identity mask as her body turned yellow blending flawlessly with the tree's yellow foliage. Eventually, she makes a beautiful peeping sound as she touches the branch's end. As she drifts away in the infinite sky, the poet correlates this sound with whispering. As an outcome, after the bird has left the tree, the Laburnum tree comes to be silent and death-like once more.

The bird mentioned in the poem has black markings identical to a mask. Peeking beyond the physical, it appears to cite the fact that her family recognizes her as she truly is. Throughout the day she may wear several masks, but still, it is difficult to hide one's true self on the verge of the day.
