Question

Who hold 'all the growth of our land'? Which land has the poet in mind?

Answer 1

Answer:

             These lines come in the very last stanza of the poem The Heart of the Tree. The lines say that a man who plants a tree holds the growth of 'all our land' (the entire world, the human civilisation) in his hand. 'Hollow of his hand' means the palm of his hand where one is most protected.
