Question

if you can't be a pine on the top of the hill, be a scrub in the valley but be the best little scrub by the side of the hill. what does the poet mean when he said above the line
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The poet says that if you can't be a pine tree standing tall on the top of the hill then that doesn't mean you are not worthy enough to be a part of the forest. You can always be the best scrub in the valley beside the rill (rivulet) making the valley beautiful. ... So atleast be the best scrub if not a pine tree.
