It is absolutely true human beings get attached to the things of this world. Children have fascination for toys, young men or women are attached to their friends, family members, career, or anything else.  

Once the attached thing is taken away, man becomes sad; he feels the lost thing is irreplaceable with any other thing.  

The Ball Poem by John Berryman beautifully describes the state of mind of a boy who has lost his ball playing. He also gives a lesson full of wisdom that through loss every man or woman learns to bear the pain associated with loss.  

The poet sees a boy who is playing with a ball. The ball bounces out of his control and falls into the water. The boy becomes sad at this. The poet feels no other ball given to the boy will lessen his sadness.  

The lost ball stands for the general losses a human being suffers as he grows old. The losses may be the loss of a personal possession or the death of a dear one or separation from a beloved one. Using this metaphor the poet highlights the main point of coming to terms with the losses. As long as there is life, there will be many types of losses; what each one has to learn is bearing those losses.
