'The Brook'
‘The Brook’ describes the journey of a stream from its place
of origin to the river that it joins. The poem has been written in the form of
an autobiography where the brook relates its experiences, like a human being as
it flows towards the river. In Literature such a device by which an inanimate
object is made to appear as a living creature is called Personification.

The poem is full of symbolism. ‘The Brook’ represents the
life of a man. From birth till adulthood man’s life is full of activities;
similarly the brook is quite active and noisy from birth till it joins a river
and becomes one with it. After joining the river, it becomes quite peaceful and
flows quietly. Similarly, after becoming mature and adult man also becomes
calmer and more composed. In spite of the similarities between man and the
brook there is one stark dissimilarity also, which the brook keeps telling the
readers frequently in the refrain ‘For men may come and men may go, But I go on
for ever.’ This refrain contrasts man’s mortal existence with the brook’s
immortal life.
The Brook also teaches us many important lessons of life. It teaches us the lesson of determinedly moving on, overcoming all obstacles; and finding a detour round rock-ridden course. Similarly, a man must move towards his goal like a river or a brook if he is to achieve his goals. His path may be full of obstacles, but he must keep moving like a brook. As the brook starts its journey from high mountains, on its way to the river it flows down many valleys, hills; slips between many ridges, flows by many villages, towns and cities, passing under many bridges, ultimately it joins the brimming river. Similarly, man must pass by and overcome many obstacles before reaching his goal or destination. So brook teaches us the lesson of perseverance, flowing energetically despite all obstacles, and never giving up...

Answer:The Brook is a poem that draws a resemblance between the journey of the brook and the life of man. The circle of life from childhood to old age and then back to childhood is what is being depicted through this poem as the flow from a brook.
ADVERTISEMENTS:
As the poem says initially, the brook comes out with a sudden hush and strength that it could just flow down the hills and bridges in such force that it flows through many places, just in a snap of time, similarly is how one’s childhood is. Very much energetic and active that they just move around from place to place just like a spin.
The next stage of life is shown, which depicts the youth is shown as the brook is chattering over stones in little sharps and trebles, with bubbly spirit always, just lushes by at the bays and banks, just like how it goes with the youth, with the bubbly energy and don’t care attitude, they could just rule the world with their deeds is how they think and that is how the poet has shown by putting in the lines the brook bubbles into eddying bays and babble on pebbles.
He then describes about middle age period, about the ups and downs of life and how at times it gets tough to get life moving through the poem where it shows how the brook when passing many curves, fields and fallow (bare lands) and sometime over fairy lands and sometimes over willow-weed and mallow, sometimes has a foamy flake and sometimes over a silver water break above the golden gravel. Still, life gets moving just like water keeps flowing.
He lastly comes to the old age times where, the strength is no more and weakness felt, where memories of past linger through the lines in the poem which shows that the brook passes through lawns and grassy plots, where is flow is not tedious and moves the sweet forget-me nots which are grown for happy lovers. The brook just flows by as a murmur through the skimming shadows, and around crevices.
ADVERTISEMENTS:
The last stanza depicts how once again the life is filled with energy and the cycle completed and the childhood again reflected by saying that the brook once again flows out a curve with all the strength and continues its journey, no matter when men may come and men may go.
A poem beautifully depicted the different stages of life, through the story of a brook and the routes its travels over a period of time and keeps the cycle going, no matter what or who comes and goes, it does not leave any impact on the cycle
