Question

) What is the theme of the poem The Toys?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The poet “Coventry Patmore” gave us the message of God’s mercy and His forgiveness.

Explanation:

He explained the fatherly relationship of God to a man. He enlightened that God always shows His pity and mercy on His mankind in spite of all sort of disobedience. He always remains open the option of the forgiveness for everyone and welcomes His mankind if the person calls Him for the forgiveness because of great love for His human beings. The poet conveyed that message by explaining his own incident which had been occurred in his daily life between his younger son and him.
