Hello friends today we are discuss this question, the question is -How does the tree heal itself?
The tree which is hacked and chopped by man heals its ‘bleeding bark’ naturally. It results in the rise of the curled green twigs from close to the ground. Feeding on the nourishment provided by Mother Earth it gradually grows into miniature boughs. If unchecked and aided by sunlight, water and air, it again expands to its former size. Thus, on one level the poet expresses man’s perception of a tree as an ever-growing menace which needs to be destroyed. However, it also reflects the role of a tree as a symbol of life and regeneration in the environment which is destroyed brutally by the man himself.
