Answer:
There are 2 themes in this poem
1.Marriage, Gender, and Power
2.Creative Expression and Personal Freedom
In "Aunt Jennifer's Tigers," a woman referred to only as Aunt Jennifer uses embroidery as a creative outlet while living (and ultimately dying) in an unhappy marriage. The poem describes the "terrified" Aunt Jennifer's fear-filled existence in a marriage full of "ordeals" in which she is ruled over by her husband, referred to simply as "Uncle."
The unnamed speaker of the poem describes the life of Aunt Jennifer, a woman who cannot escape her subservient role in her marriage. She also can't escape the marriage itself: written in 1951, the poem references a time where divorce was a social no-go. Hampered by her fear, the one form of escape Aunt Jennifer does have is through her creative work—crafting tapestry panels that show colorful scenes of bold and proud tigers.
