Ralph Waldo Emerson was a licensed minister who resigned from the clergy when his first wife passed away a couple years into their marriage. In this poem, a squirrel and a mountain have a quarrel because the mountain feels as though it is more important. Each person has his or her own individual talents, and everyone/everything has its purpose in this world, none greater or less than another.

The American poet-philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson has well brought out the problem of complexes in human beings in his poem ‘The Mountain and The Squirrel.’ The poem depicts a mountain carrying forests on its back but cannot crack a nut. Whereas a squirrel that can crack a nut cannot carry forests. There for none is superior or inferior in this world. All creatures serve as spokes in the wheel of life. God merely acts as the hub holding everything together.
