Question

What are the contradiction displayed by humans highlighted in poem the trees?

Answer 1

The contradictions displayed by humans highlighted in the poem are-

• First the humans cut down the tree, uproot them and then plant them in their homes and verandas.
• They deny them of their natural habitat by making them live in confined places.
• The poet displays the trees as half recovered patients who want to leave the hospital by running towards exit doors.
• The trees struggle to free themselves from the bondage of the confined places and move towards their natural habitat, i.e forests.

Thus the contradiction that the humans display here are the thoughts and view of humans about how on one hand they are destroying the natural environment and placing them in confined places to live their whole life.

Answer 2

• Humans cut down trees , uprooted them from the forest and plant in their homes in the confined place .
• Trees want to leave the house and want to go in the forest , their natural habitat.
• They are like a discharged patient .
