Question

What does the boy write on his paper boats? Why did he do that?

Answer 1

The boy writes his name and the name of his village on paper boats in big black letters and floats them on a stream. He does this with the hope that someone in a strange land would find the boats and take them. If the person does so, he/she would come to know about the boy and who he is.

This is from the poem Paper Boats authored by Rabindranath Tagore.
