you are old,father William Question answer
Answers
Answer:
my youth," Father William replied to his son, "I feared it might injure the brain; But now that I'm perfectly sure I have none, Why, I do it again and again."The poem is a parody in which the writer humorously describes the generation gap between a veteran/ an experienced person and his supercilious, arrogant, pompous and haughty son. In this poem, the son is very age-obsessed because he keeps reminding his father how old he is.
The funny thing that Father William did in his old age was that he stood on his head. His son found it very strange and asked him not to attempt such things in his age. The poem “You Are Old, Father William” by Lewis Carroll is about the understandings of one generation about the another.
