Question

The snake described in the poem is a beautiful creature. Imagine an alternative ending to the poem and what changes do we need to make in our perception of the outer world to make that a reality. Write an answer in 80 -100 words, giving references from the poem.​

Answer 1

We as human beings need to be more compassionate towards all living things regardless of their species.

Explanation:

• This question is from the famous and inspirating poem called "The snake trying" written by an amazing poet W.W.E Ross.

• The alternative ending to this poem as explained by the poet would be to behave humanly with the snake rather than trying or attempting to kill him.

• The man with the stick should give the snake a chance lay peacefully along the bank of the pond. However, the minute he sees the snake he feels threatened and wants to kill him.
