Answers
Answer:
One important image Rabindranath Tagore uses in the poem “I Cannot Remember My Mother” is the image of a tune. The child remembers hearing a tune the mother hummed while rocking his/her cradle. ... A third image is the sky and it reminds the child of his/her mother's gaze.
Answer:
- Visual images are iconic mental images, pictures or representations that are similar to an emotional outflow of visual perception.
- Simply we can say the construction of mental images in the mind with the help of imagination.
Explanation:
- The poem "I cannot remember my mother" by Shri Rabindranath Tagore beautifully reflects the nostalgia of how a child who lost his mother at an early age misses his mother every single moment that he can feel her presence everywhere.
This is observed by considering three visual images below:
1. In the first instance the child poet remembers his mother's humming tune while rocking his cradle.
2. In the next instance when it is autumn in the land, the child poet smells the scent of shiuli flowers which he remembers to have come from her-his mother through the morning temple rituals.
3. In the next instance, when the child poet puts glances at the sky through his bedroom window, he remembers his mother looking at him, gazing at his face.
