Answers
The poem laments the state of being ignored because one is ageing. The horse in the poem was once his master’s dear and flash in the dust. His master was proud to ride on him and he was proud too. Now the horse has become old and infirm. His master too is old so he chose a motor car to travel and the horse forgotten. Now, whenever someone passes, the horse wishes to be noticed, loved and cared for.
Bit/Bits
The poem tells the tale of an old brown horse who is now feeling lonely and retiring.
He had seen better days when he was young.
Now as he has grown old, he stands near the fence and looks over as if exhausted and tired.
He seems to be speaking to the people who pass by the field that he had had his day and now he was just watching everyone go about doing his jobs unconcerned about the horse’s existence.
No one seems to be bothered about the horse for now they drive their motor cars and no longer need the services of a horse; more so if he is old lame and half blind.
So he is left to fend for himself. His coat appears unkempt now whereas once he was well taken care of by a master who was fond of him.
Now that the passage of time had rendered him useless, his master chose to drive about in a motor car.
This is what saddens the poor horse. As he had grown old and unfit, his master was ignoring him.
He recalls his pleasant past and the time he and his master spent together.
Once in a while when a considerate person happens to pass by notices the weary horse resting his head on the topmost bar of the fence.
The person takes pity on the horse and speaks a kind word or two, soothing the horse’s agony.
The person touches his mane or the sagging coat. The horse lets out a sigh for he doesn’t mind this act of kindness just like he doesn’t mind others’ indifference.
As the reader moves towards the end of the poem, the poet asks the reader to stop for a little while if she/he happens to pass by the field where the old brown horse stands and speak a few affectionate words.
The poet remarks that the horse was once as young and lively as the person.
The horse would love the generous touch of the person’s young hands and would be much grateful for the kind concern shown to a horse who had had his day.
