\nIndividuality,rationalism, hypocrisy<\/strong>
\nAnswer:<\/span><\/strong>
\nThe stanzas that talk of each of the quality in questions are given below:<\/p>\n\n
\n<\/strong> What according to the poem, is involved in the process of growing up?
\nAnswer:<\/span><\/strong>
\nAccording to the poem, the loss of childhood is involved in the process of growing up.
\nThis loss is compensated by some gains which come with adolescence. These are: increase in understanding, power of rationalising and discrimination as well as a sense of individuality and self-confidence.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong> What are the poet\u2019s feelings towards childhood?
\nAnswer:<\/span><\/strong>
\nThe poet regards childhood as an important stage in the process of growing up. Childhood is a period of make-believe. Children readily accept whatever the elders say. The poet does not feel any regret or sense of loss on losing his childhood.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong> Which, do you think are the most poetic lines? Why?
\nAnswer:<\/span><\/strong>
\nThe following lines in the poem are most poetic:
\nIt went to some forgotten place That\u2019s hidden in an infant\u2019s face,
\nThat\u2019s all I know.
\nThese lines beautifully sum up the process of growth and the disappearance of a particular stage of life. These lines have a figurative or metaphorical meaning also. The infant\u2019s innocent face hides many things behind its smiles. Perhaps the childhood lies hidden in some forgotten place lying buried deep inside a child\u2019s consciousness.<\/p>\nMORE QUESTIONS SOLVED<\/span><\/h3>\n
