Paraphrase the worm poem in your own simple language
Answers
Answer:
"Turn , turn thy hasty foot aside,
Nor crush that helpless worm!
The frame thy scornful looks deride
Requir'd a God to form.
The common Lord of all that move,
From whom thy being flow'd,
A portion of His boundless love
On that poor worm bestow'd.
The sun, the moon, the stars He made
To all His creatures free:
And spreads o'er earth the grassy blade
For worms as well as thee.
Let them enjoy their little day,
Their lowly bliss receive;
O do not lightly take away
The life thou canst not give!"
This is the poem "The Worm" which is written by the magnificent poet Thoman Gisborne.
Paraphrase:
The first stanza focuses on the problem which is that us, human beings, are too ignorant to notice that we are crushing little creatures like worms with our giant feet as we walk. These creatures needed the God to be made, to be created and placed onto this earth.
The second para praises the creations of the Creator. The Lord created all life forms on earth including those tiny worms. A portion of his omniscient love is also for those creatures.
The third stanza is about all the creations of God; from the sun and moon to the grass, these are all his boundless creations as well as those worms that eat those grass.
The last stanza advises us to let those worms be, not to crush them and kill them as they get very little time of their life to enjoy and live. And we are no one to take that away from them.
A paraphrased version of the poem 'worm':
In the poem 'Worm' by Thomas Gisborne, the poet talks about the life of little worms which we humans have scant regard for. Without a thought, we crush them under our feet, knowingly or unknowingly. The poet says that just as we have a right to live, every tiny worm does have a right to live. They are created by the same God who created us and is no less important than humans. The poet urges us to be careful and not harm them and let them enjoy their little life happily as humans do.
