Answer 2

The figures of speech used in the line "must have a tree of my own" I said, and watered it once and went to bed is a metaphor.

What is a metaphor?

• It is a comparison between two things without using phrases and words like ‘as____ as’ and ‘like’.

What is the metaphor here?

• Here, ‘went to bed’ does not mean that the poet actually went to his bed and then slept.
• Instead, the phrase ‘went to bed’ is a metaphor for ‘forgot’.
• Therefore, ‘went to bed’ means that just like we forget everything when we sleep, the poet too watered the tree once and then forgot all about it.
