Summary of Poem "WEATHERS"

<h3><em>The poem &lsquo;Weathers&rsquo; written by an English poet, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Thomas Hardy</span>, talks about two different seasons viz. the spring and the winter seasons.&nbsp;&nbsp;</em></h3> <h3><em>&nbsp;In the first stanza the beautiful and pleasant spring season is described. He says that in this season cuckoo and nightingale feel good. The light rain flows over pointed leaves of chestnut tree. The poet is pleased as nightingale sings at his best tune. People come out of the house to enjoy the weather and the birds&rsquo; song. The young girls are seen in their fine clothes. The people plan to visit different places of south and west. The poet likes this weather as it is liked by all the birds, animals and human as well.</em></h3> <h3><em>In the second stanza he talks about the dullness of the winter season and the cold, damp and wet weather. All the natural beauty turns into dull and unpleasant. The cuckoo hates this weather and the beeches turn dry and brown as their leaves are threshed by the wind. The water drops hang from the wooden bars of gates. The rooks fly to their homes. He dislikes this season because the winter season is very cold and wet.</em></h3> <h3><em>Symbolically the poet tries to state the bright and dark aspects of human life and the word &lsquo;Weathers&rsquo; indicates the human life. Spring represents the bright and winter represents the dark aspects of our life.</em></h3>
