Answer 2

The father's helplessness is brought out in the poem sadly.

• The question has been asked from the poem Father To Son by Elizabeth Jennings.
• The father's apparent helplessness is pointed out quite sadly and is genuinely touching. With his son, the father is unhappy as there realistically is no frequent contact between the two.  
• They have no mutual comprehension of each other and are like strangers. Only silence prevails between both.
• Even though they live in the same house, they have seldom in common. The beloved father doesn't want to split his son from him, but it's in vain.
