Summary of poem I am the land

Answer 1

Answer:

"I Am The Land" is a short poem in which the poet has personified land and it underlines the fact that man tries to dominate land, though he doesn't own it. He takes pride in possessing the land, buys and sells it. The land waits patiently. When someone plants trees, grass or when children dance on it, the land feels a pleasurable tickle. However, the land is anguished when the man tries to make boundaries using wires and fences. The poem ends with a thought-provoking stanza that questions 'Can you fence the planet earth?'
