The sower poem
appreciation
Answers
Answer:
The Indian poet Nalini Sharma goes eloquent on her experience of the first shower.On a hot summer
day,fatigued well beyond words,the poet really longed for a first shower to enliven her otherwise
dampened spirits.The day long heat has long robbed her energies.Weary lines have started to play
first fiddle on her face.What she really most wished for was something that could make her body
mind and soul cooled up.Returning back from her workplace after an exhausted day’s committed
works,she was enthralled to embrace the first showers to every inch of her.Each of her cell throbbed
with vibrant energy.The marks of fatigue on her visage was easily cleaned up.Her parched face
shone brightly with cool drops dancing on her face.The poet gaily recounts how the first rain has
soothed her frayed nerves.Rain always carries along with it a nostalgia ,to incite dead passions, to
bring back the old dusted memories to life,to freshen up the dull spirits and to spread mirth.Nature
always is a perennial source of comfort and solace for those who seek.Not only has the
rain,energized the fatigued body and mind of the poet,it also made the flora look afresh.The poet
has relied on an abundance of images and symbols ,rendering the poem a unique charm of its own
travellers who were fed up with the long and tiring journey, feel relieved of the dust and heat and
welcome wholeheartedly the tantalizing fragrance of the earth just after the first rain.Their anxieties
are put to rest and they feel mostly charged up.The poet is in all praise of the raingod.She wanted to
be grateful to him who has bestowed on us this bountiful blessing.The trees on the roadside with
leaves covered with dust remain famished all through the summer and wish for a drop of water to
quench their thirst.They look polished in thier newly washed green attire and sway their leaves in
mirth ,once they are blessed with the bounteous rain.
Rain is welcomed everywhere. The poet has also used expressions and poetic devices such as similie
and metaphor,alliteration,and visual images to give us a vivid picture of nature glorified through rain.A
fretted mind could turn to nature to find panacea for all his troubles.Nature is a store house of great
wonders.The poem is no doubt a eulogy sung to rain.Wading through the muddy water ,she hurriedly
goes back home marvelling upon the bounteous rain getting all the more drenched in rain .
