Question

what is the main thought in the first stanza? poem Don't give up.. exploring English 7​

Answer 1

Answer:

This poem describes to us the importance of being patient and never giving up our efforts. It tells us never to be disheartened by our failures. The poet illustrates the example of young birds in their initial stage of flights. The birds fall but rise higher and become stronger each time. The strong oak tree goes through a tough time during stormy winds but after every blow, she rises again more loftier and prouder. Our success and victories will not be valued so much if it comes to us easily. The poet tells us that the test that really tries us is when we gain victory from our defeat.

Therefore the main theme of the poem is to never cease our efforts no matter what our failures maybe.
