Question

The poem tiger in the zoo moves from zoo to wild and back discuss?​

Answer 1

The poem "A Tiger in the Zoo" is about the life of a tiger who has been captivated in the cage and who longs for freedom. The poem starts with the scene where the tiger is seen in the cage. The tiger's thoughts and feelings in living in the cage are described in the initial lines. Later, the poet shifts the scene to the jungle where the tiger would be free. He picturizes the tiger as a free animal. In the next scene, the poet shares the sadness of the tiger who is enclosed in the cage rather than be free. The tiger is thus considered as helpless and in great agony because of its captivity.
