The stealthy movement of Nature much like a cat and its transient presence is presented in the poem'Fog'.
Explanation:
- Carl Sandburg was a famous American poet. One of his most famous poems is 'Fog'.
- Fog is written in the form of a Haiku. A Haiku is a short Japanese poem of usually seventeen syllables on Nature.
- In this poem the poet describes the nature of fog in just six lines. He splits these lines in two stanzas and writes in free verse.
- The nature of the fog is juxtaposed with a metaphorical cat.
- Just as a cat slips in stealthily unnoticed and silent so does the fog emerge softly in its 'cat feet'.
- Sandburg uses kinesthesia to describe the motion of the fog.
- A cat prefers to sit on an elevated position to get a good view of its surroundings. Silently yet minutely it examines its whereabouts so that it may creep into the corners and steal its prey.
- Like the cat the fog is transient, within a wink of the eye it has left its place and gone somewhere else.
- T.S Eliot also used the cat metaphor in many of his poems and in 'The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock' the fog and the cat imagery is distinct.
- The stealthy and transient nature of Nature is thus presented in the poem 'Fog'.
