INTRODUCTION:
“Going
for Water” is one among Robert Frost‟s autumn Poems and is full of poetic beauty. The poem captures the joy of the children who go through the woods to get water from the brook.
VISIT TO THE BROOK:
The children really enjoyed their way to the brook. The autumn evening was chill. They started moving towards the fields and the woods which they always considered as theirs.
The chillness of the autumn made them to march merrily towards the brook. “The well was dry beside the door, and so went with pail and can”
NATURE THE TEACHER:
On the way, the moon was playing hide and seek, the birds had migrated to warmer places and the woods stood still because trees had shed their leaves in autumn. The tall trees in the woods made them look like dwarfs.
“We ran as if to meet the moon
That slowly dawned behind the trees” BEAUTY OF THE BROOK:
They maintained silence just to listen to whispering of the water as they saw the water reflecting the moonlight and glistering like pearls.
“Now drops that floated on the pool Like pearls and now a silver blade”
CONCLUSION:
The poet captures the innocent joy by the children in the midst of nature. “The sight of running water always gives pleasure”
CONCEPT:
“Preserve nature, Conserve Water
The scenic beauty of nature gives us happiness.”
