Answers
Answer:
In which poem this que.????
Answer:
The poet remembers the particular rainy night because he is reminded of his mother.
Explanation:
The poem is called 'The night of the Scorpion' by Nissim Ezekiel.
It is a reflective poem where he talks about a rainy night that he vividly remembers.
The rain sets a melancholic mood that makes the poet walk down his memory lane to find the memory of such a rainy night where his mother is present.
One rainy night a scorpion crawls into his house taking a brace from the rain and stings his mother.
After hours of trying a lot of remedies, and religious chanting the effect of the poison finally calms down.
This shows that the superficial things such as atonement, and pity offered by the villagers to the poet's mother were useless when compared to the immense love she had for her children.
The mother thanks the almighty for saving her children and having the scorpion attack her instead of them. This is the ultimate proof that a mother's love is unrivaled in this world.
