Answer 2

‘I saw children playing’ is an allegorical poem by Dora Sigerson Shorter.

EXPLANATION:

The poem relates the sadness and grief a little girl feels when she is called away from play. All her play mates are enjoying themselves fully but she has to leave the field. As she reluctantly leaves she hopes her friends will feel her absence and stop playing. But alas! Nobody is bothered about her departure. None of them stop their play for once.

Allegorically the poem states the harsh reality of life. When in the prime of our lives we suddenly die the World carries on with its activities, never for once stopping for us. Life goes on as usual it is we who have to leave the joyride.
