                                                                                                 life skill  logical thinking
          1.  Do you think Christopher’s parents were worried about his illness? What did they do?

          2.  Do you think Christopher Robin was seriously ill or pretending to be ill? Which line in the
               poem tells us so?                                                              life skill  analytical thinking

          3.  How can you relate to the poem?




                                                       Time to enjoy

          The continuation of a sentence without a pause beyond the end of a line, couplet or stanza is
          called enjambment.

          For example: In the poem ‘The Waste Land’ by T S Eliot, enjambment can be seen in the lines,
          which run continuously to more than 3 sentences.

          April is the cruellest month, breeding

          Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing

          Memory and desire, stirring

          Dull roots with spring rain.

          1.  Explain the use of enjambment in the poem that you’ve read. Why do you think the poet has
               used this literary device?

          2.    Write the examples of repetition used in the poem.
