Summary of i am the land poem
Answers
Answer:
The poem "I Am the land" is written by Marina de Bellagenta. In this poem the earth speaks to the people. The people buy the land and say they own it. They shout but the earth lies patiently. The earth imagines itself with muddy holes and cars parked on with light on as its staring eyes.
This happiest things that the earth feels is that the farmers ploughing the earth, plants, trees, grow fruit, flowers, children play and birds sing. The earth shares its unhappy feeling that the soldiers fight against other country soldiers. They put fence between the nations. But they do not know they are choking the earth with the smoke from the wars. The fence look like a chain link necklace that chokes the earth. Finally the earth assert that men can put fence between the countries but not around the earth planet. The poem conveys universal brotherhood.
