YEs dont you know "The Cat"
Eleanor Farjeon
The poem is about a green eyed cat. The cat plays, scratches, hisses until the cat gets tired. Once the cat is tired of playing, she needs a nap.
The child in the poem was walking down a dusty rod, probably going home but the child go called over by a old lady under a tree and the child went over there and ate some bilberries and cream.
Throughout the recreation, the poet seeks to involve our senses. She introduces concrete objects ('a mountain, an old house, and a tree'), and simple colors ('in a red shawl with a grey cat'), to help us visualisethe scene. She invites us to hear the memory ('and while she hummed, and the cat purred'), to taste it ('...the taste of berries'), and feel it ('the feel of the sun I remember') as she draws upon her own sense memories. Thus, the memory is evoked for us in a much clearer way. Through the pet's skill in using appropriately simple words, structure and rhythm, to recreate her earliest memory, she successfully involves us in the poem. For all its simplicity, the poem has a gentle robustness to it. We share the uncluttered goodness of the incident and are left with some wistful longings for our own childhood.
