Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
This poem is primarily about the urge to travel and explore every corner of the earth. However, as we will see, it also has a ‘carpe diem’ (meaning ‘seize the day’ theme). Life is a journey for the poet, and he asserts that we must continue on this journey at all times so that no opportunity is ever lost by us. We must live every day like it is our last, and take life to be a gift.
Answer:
The poet feels the call to explore the globe from
east to west and to follow the sun, sea, and sky. The
poet likens this wanderlust to a kind of illness that
forces him to say goodbye to his home and loved
ones. He does not know where he will go, but he
will use the sun and stars to guide him. Once he
starts on this journey, there is no end in sight, as
the rivers, birds, and roads urge him to go on. Just
as ships are constantly docking and leaving, the
narrator might return home but be obliged to leave
home again, as he is constantly pulled away from
home to see the sights of the world--including the
sun, stars, road, and sky
