The Ball Poem is written by John Berryman who tells us that a boy loses his ball as it falls in the water. The poet emphasizes on the feelings of boy after losing his ball. An ultimate shaking grief fixes the boy as he stands stiff staring down. He is troubled at this loss.
The Poet tells us that how the boy is understanding the nature of loss and the boy must feel his responsibility. However, the Poet can buy him another ball and it won't cost much, but he won't do it since he wants the boy to learn the epistemology of loss and how to stand up when something is lost.
The boy is little and he must know the importance of loss and should be able to cope up with the loss and move on. He is experiencing grief and learning to grow up in this world of possessions.
The Poet also wants the boy to control his emotions and to tell himself that there are many things in life which get lost and cannot be brought back and in such situations, instead of being in grief how moving on in life is important. The loss of ball is just a small thing that the boy experiences and there's still more in life that is to come.
