Question

What side of nature do 'crow' and 'hemlock tree' represent?

Class 10th

Answer 1

Answer:

The ‘crow’ and ‘hemlock tree’ in the poem Dust of Snow represent the dark side of nature. Crow is not as beautiful a bird as robin, nightingale, parrots, doves, sparrows, pigeons, etc. are; similarly, hemlock tree is poisonous and there are more beautiful trees in nature also such as pine, oak, teak, etc. The snow in the poem represents the bright side of nature.

Answer 2

The crow and the hemlock tree in the poem Dust of snow written by Robert Frost represent the dark side of nature along with a depressive, sorrowful and bitter side. The crow is a bird that is dark and comes with a dark pitched voice. Similarly, the hemlock teed is poisonous and gives bitter fruit.

Though they both have a dark nature, they both are beautiful in this world and this thought has made the poet better.
