Poem: Fame and Friendship
Fame and
Friendship is written by H.A. Dobson. Here poet wants to convey that fame is
not as good as friendship. Fame is immortal and friendship is mortal. If we
compare first stanza with second stanza we know that poet shown the reality of
life.
First
stanza,
“Fame is a food that dead men eat,
I have no stomach for such meat.”
I have no stomach for such meat.”
Above lines
speaks about that there is no value of fame in our life because fame is like a
food that dead men eat. Why poet compare fame with dead men? Because one day
fame will die with the person.
Second stanza,
“But
Friendship is a nobler thing,
Of Friendship it is good to sing.”
Of Friendship it is good to sing.”
Friendship is connects one person to the other. So many
ideas, thoughts, feelings, emotions share by friendship and it is the bridge
that connects our relations. At the end men will die but their sweet memories
always lives. It is the experience of recall and past and through it friendship
always lives. Friendship is a nobler thing because it proves healthy
relationship and it includes care for others.
One day friend will die but memories of her/him always lives with us.
