Summary of poem A PRAYER by Scottish poet Carol Ann duffy
Answers
Answer:
Prayer by Carol Ann Duffy is a soothing poem which deals with the theme of comfort, solitude and finding respite in the day to day realities of existence. Written in Shakespearean Sonnet style ( fourteen lined iambic pentameter with three quartrains and an ending couplet), this poem beautifully captures the stirrings of one’s soul which is capable of finding the spiritual in the ordinary and the poetic otherworldly experience in the prosaic corners of our daily lives. The poem explores the idea that a prayer needn’t necessarily be uttered in a conscious manner. Some days a prayer utters itself itself in the form of half notes sung by a tree which a woman stares at in moments of solitude. Some nights it may make itself felt in the distant sound of a train or the soft notes of piano or the sound of someone calling her child’s name at dusk. At other times when there is darkness outside, a prayer may present itself in as simple a thing as the familiarity of the radio’s weather forecast. hope it helps...
